[New-Poetry] Aesthetic Diversity in Poetry Today

[jforjames at aol.com]

But has the buzz died?down to?a dull hum?now that New Formalism is over?20 years old?


And are there?novitiates in great numbers???


?


The other effect I observe is the doppler?of?"What's dat?" 


Things are over, have come & gone, before one is even half-aware of them. 


One picks up the dying sound of their doppler as they are passing into history.

In this arena for aesthetic diversity, I notice that New Formalism seems to be unrepresented in this forum. Is that movement 'So over' already? Unless one counts rhymester Kay Ryan? But I don't really think of her as strongly formal. Though I know

she's been championed by Dana Gioia among others with formal leanings.



We are still here, and we won't go away.
