National Poetry Month--day 22

Whether you find her brilliant or ridiculous--and if you're like me, you can find her to be both within the space of one sentence--Camille Paglia gets your attention. She is currently getting some very positive attention for her new book, Break, Blow, Burn: Camille Paglia Reads Forty-three of the World's Best Poems. Clive James reviewed the book in the New York Times, and his review is definitely worth a read.

Here is your poem for today.
