Default Off Topic but worth a gander on rainy or snowy days

11. Poetry Everywhere [Macromedia Flash Player]
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/poetryeverywhere/

Poetry can truly be found anywhere, and that is the animating force
behind the website and the series created by WGBH in Boston, along with
other partners at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and the Poetry
Foundation.
On PBS, the Poetry Everywhere "moments" appear somewhat unexpectedly,
but here visitors can make their way through these readings as they see
fit.
Visitors can check in on fifteen different poets reading their work,
including Charles Simic reading "stone", Billy Collins reading "The
Lanyard", and Lucille Clifton reading "won't you celebrate with me".
Perhaps the real highlight of the site is the 12 animated films created
by students working at docUWM, which is a documentary media center at
the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. These short films illuminate
poems like Robert Creeley's "The Language" and John Ashbery's "Paradoxes
and Oxymorons". [KMG]
