What Sparks Poetry:
Ana Menéndez on "Ode II.11"
"Maybe what we mistake for portents are only hauntings. We are forever caught in the lyric spirals of Horace, the worst seasons return again and again in new guise, Death, pale and impartial, ever at the door. So we cling to the simplest dreams: a drink of wine, a pretty youth, a line of poetry." |

"Craig muMs Grant, Actor and Slam Poet, Dies"
"Craig muMs Grant’s biggest success as an actor was the role of Poet on the HBO prison drama 'Oz,' but fans of that series were accustomed to seeing him credited simply as muMs. It was a name he adopted as a young man when he was exploring rap and slam poetry, influences that he said changed his life."
