Featured Long Poetic Works

The following are featured long poetic works. In a world of increasingly short attention spans, to borrow a phrase and reverse an idea from Randy Newman, poets who write long poems "got nobody to love" their work. We hope you'll prove to be the exception to Newman's Rule of Thumb, and will benefit from your exceptional-ness! -- MRB
