[New-Poetry] Changing of the guard

[TheOldMole]

Anyone have any thoughts on Paul Muldoon at the New Yorker? He's going 
for the tried and true -- a couple of poems by Merwin in the last issue 
I read, looks like Merwin and Stephen Dunn in the current issue. For 
myself, I have no problem with this. It's better poetry than we're used 
to seeing in the New Yorker, and these guys have earned their place at 
the top of the food chain. The New Yorker is a general audience 
magazine, after all.
