Billy Collins and I have some disagreements about what constitutes good poetry. Some of the poems in here are really great, like Greg Delanty's "The Alien". While others I wouldn't even really consider to be worthy of the paper they are printed on. I always try to pick up newer anthologies to see if there are any recent poets I might want to check out. This anthology will give you an overview of the good, the bad and the incredibly ugly of the recent poetry.
