Today, the Wall St. Journal ran a Leisure & Arts editorial discussing pharmaceutical heiress Ruth Lilly’s $100 million gift to Poetry Magazine. The article not only cites the same essay on poetry I discussed two days back, but comes largely to the same conclusion that I did: that the creation of poetry is in less need of help than the appreciation of poetry, and that money and effort should be directed accordingly.

I’m so many steps ahead, it’s almost eerie.
