William Ford

Poet
Iowa City, IA

When the words spark and connect, I feel a special joy even though, say, the subject may be the personal blues (Yeats, Eliot, Vassar Miller, Kooser, Hugo), arty playfulness (Stevens, Knott, Sexton, Matthews)or the horror of public life (Auden, Hecht, Rich, Forche, Ginsberg).
