Anyone have at the 100 International Poets You Should Know? Based on visibility (however subjectively
defined) and being alive. 
And it all gets kind of slippery when talking 'mericun poets...where does a Paul Muldoon
fit in at this point? Arguably an American poet after so many years of teaching at Princeton and now he's
the poetry editor of The New Yorker. Someone check that man's papers and see if he still hold an
Irish passport.

Hi Dave, one of the prerequisites was also the following:

Say it?ain't so about Hayden...I thought he was hanging on in small house in upstate New York. But, yes two?list
criteria are living and?U.S. based?long enough to be considered 'American' by most.?<

That bit flew fast past my specs, Anny (smile)

Best
