[New-Poetry] What am I letting myself in for?

[jfq at myuw.net]

What I think is scary is the possibility is that it's not a relation, but rather someone who was named after our illustrious NEA chairman. that there are children old enough to be in college and young enough to have been named Dana Gioia as a tribute to his poetry. it makes me feel kind of old.

At least it's not someone named XJ Kennedy though.
