I already told this story when I wrote about the Poetry Foundation, but when I was in tenth grade my English teacher had each of us memorize, recite, and analyze a poem. I ended up with “Out, Out–” by Robert Frost. I really liked the poem, but I don’t think that I’ve intentionally read any poetry since high school. However, for many poetry is the ultimate form of expression. These people are likely members of the Academy of American Poets, a New York, NY based non-profit membership organization that focuses on “fostering an appreciation for contemporary poetry and supporting American poets.”
Academy of American Poets promotes poetry through a number of programs. These include National Poetry Month, Poem-a-Day, and Poets Forum. Additionally, they run Poets.org, which has all kinds of content for poetry enthusiasts. There’s even more for members who can get access for as little as $35 per year. If you love poetry, take a look at Academy of American Poets’s Idealist page. Right now they’re looking for a Development Assistant.
