This is the archive of the Poem Instant, and, in case you don't think you "know"poetry, I´ve included an essay providing my own take on it. The essays are linked at the bottom of the page, but before any use for research purposes, I request that you e-mail me, so that I can provide permission and tell you if I think that my take is full of crap.
1. Wallace Stevens - "The Motive for Metaphor"
2. W. H. Auden - "The Unknown Citizen"
3. Black History Month - Special Issue
