Povel will read quick but should give you a nice jolt sort of like drinking from the fountain of youth.
The Olson (John) is so dear to my heart it might break my heart if you don't read it first and then again and again and again.
The Willis will send you too.
That's all I know, sorry I can't be comprehensive here. Goood luck, and I'm looking forward to hearing about whatever you choose....
By the by, it's a hell of a great day whenever a box of poem-books get delivered to your door!
Geraldine Kim's Povel. I've thumbed through, and it looks amazing. I won't get to read it in the near future, so reading your blog post on it will be a next-best thing.
I think Descartes' Loneliness is brilliant and moving.
