Today we open with an appropriate ode, or two, from Pablo Neruda, and perhaps its earliest and some say best incarnations: Pindar himself.
However, inspired by Ken Burns new historical review of the Vietnam war, we return to the poets of the Vietnam era: Denise Levertov, Gregory Corso, Steven Dobyns, William Stafford, Philip Levine and Allen Ginsberg, Amiri Baraka, Gil Scott Heron -- and Bob Dylan.
Last, a tribute to John Asbery and his wonderful, powerful, and impossible to explain poetic legacy.
