The National Potrait Gallery has a new exhibit – Poetic Likeness: Modern American Poets.
The show’s title is, I hope, self-explanatory. If it is not, I suspect you are just on this blog in the hopes of finding dirty pictures (there aren’t any, so quit looking; the entire rest of the internet exists solely to store pornography, so you’ll live if you encounter a single freaking page without any nudity).
But a nice way to honor great American poets while providing a different way to look them and (hopefully) an opportunity to encounter their work.
