@tombdelay @cheddahz Charlotte should have gotten more but I think it’s a smart move: path to contention looked bleak out east — Heat got better; Hawks put up a good show against the Knicks and probably got better; Pacers get Hali back; and Knicks, Celtics, Pistons, and Cavs aren’t going anywhere.

If you’re in NYC, come through to a great party tomorrow, headlined by two great poets @itinerant_male and @TomWill72550626

[Dustin Cole @itinerant_male]

Nothing can stop Dustin is coming

@amjuster @JeremyTate41 The list is also missing Cicero; during the 16th century, his De Officiis was the second most-printed book. Newly-discovered works of his spurred the Renaissance.

Doubt 45-50 have influenced anyone of historical importance. Uncle Tom’s Cabin was popular in its day, too.

[A.M. Juster (with Amazon's #1 #Canzoniere!) @amjuster]

Yay! A new sonnet from Rhina P. Espaillat!

Today at NVR, Marie Burdett reviews Liv Ross's (@je_suis_liv) fairy-tale-in-verse The Blackbird Ballad (@SolumPress)!

"[Ross] takes inspiration from traditional folklore to weave a new tale about two best friends’ journey through Faerieland."

That new @TomWill72550626 and my favorite poem in his work!

Buy RHYMES from @FarthestHeaven

[Jason Reid @Jason__Reid]

@up_an_octave @TomWill72550626 @FarthestHeaven I love “altaring” — this is one of my favorite Tom poems.

[Jason Reid @Jason__Reid]

Good suggestions from @amjuster

Maybe some publications should hold competitions for reciting other people’s works?

[Athenaeum Review @TheAthenaeumRev]

New on the podcast! @amjuster on his new translation of Petrarch's Canzionere. Clips:

Do Petrarch’s poems to Laura qualify as “love poetry”?
The first poem in the book, written during a time of plague

Never not amazed by how in love Robert Browning and Elizabeth Barrett Browning were…..he told her he loved her in his very first letter and then rescued her from her overbearing father

We need to nuke the word “yearning.” It was over the moment that the semi-literate masses got their hands on it
