Synopsis

How can something published in 1968 be so 2021? It can because it's a lyric poem by Bernadette Mayer, a poet whose work may well define what I think is great about lyric poetry. Join me, Mark Scarbrough, as I take a look at this fabulous and very adult sonnet by one of the best American poets working still today. Rage? You bet! But in sonnet form.
