• The Missouri Review publishes a series of “Dream Poems” by Richard Bausch.
• Joanna Klink talks poetry in Jubilat.  Looking forward to her next collection, Raptus, which Penguin is releasing this May (preorder a copy).
• Rae Armantrout in Poetry.
• Robert Bly in the APR, “Nirmala’s Music.”
• Bly is hitting the magazines hard this month.
• Poetry Northwest announces its newest issue with a poem by Rick Barot. He is the author of Want: Poems– a book worth a few readings.
• After this week’s premiere of Treme on HBO, I like to imagine John Goodman reciting this poem.  Fady Joudah in Callaloo – behind a wall for subscribers and libraries.
• Atlanta Review has the most bizarrely charming web presence.  I’m not even sure this is the entirety of Michael Lee Phillips’ prize-winning poem, but it’s still a solid narrative piece.
• Adam Zagajewski, translated from Polish by Clare Cavanagh, in Five Points.

• Todd Boss with “It Is Enough to Enter” in Poetry.
• Natasha Trethewey goes fishing in the New England Review. Her most recent collection is the highly recommended Native Guard.
• Jynne Dilling Martin throws the first fish back (Ploughshares).
• Ricardo Pau-Llosa in the Kenyon Review, “Nicodemus Man.“
• Sensing a nautical theme this week – Sarah Cohen as “Scylla and Charybdis” (Threepenny Review).
• In New American Writing, a longer poem by Mahmoud Darwish, “Counterpoint, for Edward Said.” Trans., Fady Joudah.  It is difficult to read this poem and not be reminded of Adonis’ “Grave for New York.”
