I am quite fond of Mary Oliver:
"Closing the book, I find I have left my head inside. It is dark in here, but the chapters open their beautiful spaces and give a rustling sound, words adjusting themselves to their meaning. Long passages open at successive pages. An echo, continuous from the title onward, hums behind me. From in here, the world looms, a jungle redeemed by these linked sentences carved out when an author traveled and a reader kept the way open. When this book ends I will pull it inside-out like a sock and throw it back in the library. But the rumor of it will haunt all that follows in my life. A candleflame in Tibet leans when I move."

I've gotten into D.ickinson even though/because I did a term paper on her. I'd rather write prose than poetry, but poems fall out some times. Warious, you should post some of yours here on our writing section! I know it says fiction but that's ok.

Any you want us to see, I guess! The writing threads here are split between fanfiction and OF, so you can put whatever up.
