Dear All--

Marjorie Perloff, a friend of the Working Group in Contemporary Poetics, has
generously passed along to us
a short piece on the new O'Hara Selected Poems that will be the focus of our
session on 9/26.  This is forthcoming in a journal (Lana Turner: A Journal of
Poetry and Opinion, edited by Calvin Bedient)but we get a sneak peek.  In the
short article there is a reference to the following clip on Youtube (a
cinematic version of an O'Hara poem). That is:

And here is a clip of O'Hara being read on the television show Mad Men (AMC
channel) proving that poetry does have a place in pop culture.

Ever,
