We like poetry here at BookSense.com. Occasionally we like that difficult stuff that only makes sense when looked at sideways through a polarized window, sometimes the easy stuff aimed for kids (calling Dr. Seuss!), and most often...well, that's the thing about poetry, it's hard to describe! Here's a selection of poems, interviews, essays, and more that have appeared on the site so far:

• Poems of Love
• Poetry Speaks Out Contest Winners
• For an entirely different sort of poetry: Daily Angst!
• Top Bookseller Poetry Picks
• Some of our fave poets get interviewed or write essays:
  • Albert Goldbarth (2)
  • Eleanor Lerman
  • Simone Muench
  • Paul Muldoon
  • Jack Prelutsky
  • Charles Rafferty
  • James Sallis
  • Luis Alberto Urrea
