A lot of people (or one very persistent person) have been searching (using various engines) for Billy Collins’s poem, “The Lanyard.” Sorry, it’s not here, nor have I seen it in any of the collections of his poetry I am familiar with. Perhaps it’s fairly recent, in which case you’d best look in APR or Poetry or some literary journals. All that’s here is a set list of some of the poems he read on the last Sunday of the “Dodge Poetry Festival.”
[Update: a lot of people have also been Googling for Amiri Baraka-related material. If you want the set list and notes from the speech on Sunday, it’s there too.—Allan, 1 Oct 2002]
Thanks for stopping by; I would appreciate your comments, even derogatory ones. If I were thin-skinned, I would not be publishing a weblog.
