Bowden Blogs
Welcome--I'm beginning this blog of sorts as a place to organize and keep some of the poetry that I process each day. This is a personal project, and not particularly for you, so do keep that in mind, though it'd be a pretty coincidence if you do find something to love. If you're coming here from research/career background, probably don't.
I want to state here very clearly that almost all of the poems mentioned are not mine, and credit is due to their respective authors and publishers and such. I have recapitulated them here either as a record for myself of a piece I loved dearly, or often because I could not find any satisfactory online version of them to link instead.
