"We haven't focused on poetry on The Writing Show nearly as much as we should. And what better way to start than by looking at the state of poetry today! But if you think you're about to hear a lot of flowery talk, grab hold of your seat. This week's guest, unlike most of the poetry establishment, is not pleased."

I found the things Mr. Salemi has to say fascinating, and believe it or not, I find myself more interested in poetry than ever before, partly because of this podcast episode.
