		<description><![CDATA[To Earthward offers a glimpse at the Robert Frost who didn't seem quite as content in his place as our dear statue of him on the freshman quad might make us believe.

Love at the lips was touch
As sweet as I could bear;
And once that seemed too much;
I lived on air
That crossed me from sweet things,

		<description><![CDATA[I once read that Matthew Arnold&#8217;s Dover Beach is the most parodied work in English poetry (David Lehman, Best American Poetry 2007). Arnold&#8217;s speaker stands on the cliffs of Dover with his lover, looking out over the sea, questioning the underlying violence below love. It&#8217;s a classic.
It&#8217;s not surprising that Dover Beach is a popular [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ The Doldrum Fracture Zone
The place where sailors—though now open
to all professions—went to consider the mirage
of their own despair. Once, only sailors could
go there: the breezeless place,
the weed-choked and stinking sea plain
where they stalled for weeks, months. Today,
the Zone comes to us,
its great gray inertness dragged
like opaque knife wounds over each
who stands on a shore and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I met 3-time poet laureate Robert Pinsky this summer at the Aspen Summer Words writers&#8217; workshop. He really intrigued me with the way he listens to poetry&#8211; for him, the heart of poetry is sound. This poem is from his most recent book of poetry, Gulf Music. He also writes a sporadic poetry column for [...]]]></description>

Cactus flowers are gone by June, and the sandy soil is only contrasted by the sky, saguaros, and various types of brush vegetation that grows close to the ground. The saguaros stand like desert soldiers, a militia at attention on the mountainsides. ]]></description>

After leaving Telluride on Monday, I went to Mesa Verde, Black Canyon of the Gunnison, and Great Sand Dunes national parks. Each was fun in its own way&#8211; my geologic nerdiness was out in full form. I spent a lot of time driving and hiking, [...]]]></description>

I didn&#8217;t mean to come here. From Moab, I drove down to Lake Powell on the Utah-Arizona border. Lake Powell used to be Glen Canyon, before the Army Corps [...]]]></description>
