 The Poet
The poet is the person in whom these powers are in balance, the man without impediment, who sees and handles that which others dream of, traverses the whole scale of experience, and is representative of man, in virtue of being the largest power to receive and to impart.
The poet has a new thought: he has a whole new experience to unfold; he will tell us how it was with him, and all men will be the richer in his fortune.
The beauty of the fable proves the importance of the sense; to the poet, and to all others; or, if you please, every man is so far a poet as to be susceptible of these enchantments of nature: for all men have the thoughts whereof the universe is the celebration.

 Leo Aylen - Poet
The competence is a part of his mastery of classical poetry and his skill in translating it; the sincerity is his own attitude to life today, concentrated into words that really say what they mean.
Leo Aylen is that rarity, an extraordinarily effective poet whose verse not only cries out to be spoken aloud but which also survives on the printed page to communicate, most tellingly, to the inward ear.
I regard Leo Aylen as being a poet, unusually competent, and unusually sincere.

 Poetry News June 2005
Just as bad as these poets are their entourages who comment on their work and tell them how wonderful and profound they are when in reality, they don’t know what the hell the masturbating Mensan poet said either.
Poets in the second group usually think they’re the underdogs, and anyone who’s bothered to read a book of real poetry is automatically less creative.
I find both these types of poets, the well-educated poet who looks down on others and the uneducated poet with the chip on the shoulder, to be equally annoying.

Every poet I know -- although there may be some I don't know who lead very different lives, who maybe live in the country and don't teach -- tends to be just like the rest of us: just really busy, really overcommitted.
We think of Lucille Clifton's poems, and they don't have to have an "I" in them for the spirit of the poet, a person, to be felt.
So many poets whose work I love are funny now and then.

and a poetic style that deviated from the intellectualism of such high modernist poets as T. Eliot, Ezra Pound, and Gertrude Stein made him a distinctive figure in contemporary American writing.
An example is the poem "Springer Mountain," wherein Dickey imagines himself hunting a deer in the early winter morning air and entering into a ritualistic sense of oneness with his intended prey:
Dickey's poetic topics cover a wide and varied range.

 The Poet's Poet
The poet, despising the sordid and unwieldy natures of men, may try, as Wordsworth did, to give us a purer crystallization of his ideas in nature, but it is really his own personality, scattered to the four winds, that he is offering us in the guise of nature, as the habiliments of his thought.
The poet may not always be conscious of this, any more than Keats was; his traits may be so broadcast that he is in the position of the philosopher who, from the remote citadel of his head, disowns his own toes; nevertheless, a sense of tingling oneness with him is the secret of nature's attraction.
Although the poet's egotism would seem logically to cause him to find his chief pleasure in undisturbed communion with himself, still this picture of the poet delighting in solitude cannot be said to follow, usually, upon his banishment from society.

He was known to recite other poets he knew "by heart" and interlaced his own verses with theirs.
According to Hudson, the Beat poets related to ancient bardic traditions and sought to bring their poetry directly to the people.
Bob Kaufman was a rambling man of the world and eternal social outsider who could recite T. Eliot and Garcia Lorca by heart and who created his own spontaneous surrealist verse.

Today, it is a title given to a poet regarded by a country or region as its most eminent or representative poet.

She was named "The Loved Laurel Crowned Poet of California" by the Legislature of 1919, and held the title until her death in 1928.
