Making a Poem: Some Thoughts about Poetry and the People Who Write ItWe need poetry as we need love and company, according to Miller Williams. Making a Poem speaks to us all those of us trying to write a first poem, those who have published volumes of poetry, and anyone who cares how the world and language fit together. Distinguished as a poet, a teacher, a scholar, and a publisher, Williams traverses a wealth of topics. He explores poetic techniques of line break, rhythm and meter, and the development of verse forms.

We need poetry as we need love and company, according to Miller Williams. Making a Poem speaks to us all -- those of us trying to write a first poem, those who have published volumes of poetry, and anyone who cares how the world and language fit together. Distinguished as a poet, a teacher, a scholar, and a publisher, Williams traverses a wealth of topics. He explores poetic techniques of line break, rhythm and meter, and the development of verse forms. In our technological age, he makes clear that poetry is essential to the human soul, showing the connection between scientists and humanists. Williams draws from experience to describe the importance of teaching poetry to prisoners, the value of the university and the small press in fostering poetry, and the relationship between writer and editor. Making a Poem is an intimate, conversational treatise on poetry by a man of letters with decades of practice in both the business and the craft of verse. Readers will take away from this delightful book a deeper appreciation of the poet's art and the vital role poetry can play in their everyday lives.

K and N is the best
Size: CA12290-Premium
In my opinion, you can’t buy a better air filter. Been buying them for all my cars since the 1990s.

Works as expected
Style: HEPA
This filter fit just right on my FJ cruiser. Snuggle fit and no issues. You can't tell this apart form other cabinair filters. Smells like the same clean smell when you first change it.

Super tight fit
Style: PUREFLOW
It fit but only barely in my 2006 Subaru Outback, I had to bend it to cram it in so it creased up a good bit.
