[stylist] For lovers of poetry

[Lynda Lambert]

Yes, this is a very good poem! I think the discussion of the final question 
is important on this clip.  He is so clear about how we learn to write 
poetry. We are best influenced by other poetry and poets, and by reading 
poetry.  The library is our best teacher.
