Charles Meynier, Calliope, Muse of Epic Poetry, ca. 1800.

Most of the poems collected here (and occasional short story and song lyric) I have posted over the years on various blogs as I (re)discovered them. This will explain why the articles are dates, rather than the poems’ titles in many cases. Some of them even accompany those online musings still. Each has meant something to me at one time, and many continue to resonate. A few I teach and some I annotate.

The tab “After the Odyssey” are poems and lyrics that have been inspired by Homer’s Odyssey.
