Boston Week
by Heng-Cheong Leong

Hi there! Today, we conclude Boston Week — where we explore the works of Boston writers — with three poems by Mr Robert Pinsky.

If you have any comments or suggestions on Boston Week, or any other aspects of MyAppleMenu Reader, please feel free to forward them to me. Suggest future themes and/or links too.

Thank you.

Shirt
by Robert Pinsky
The back, the yoke, the yardage. Lapped seams,
The nearly invisible stitches along the collar
Turned in a sweatshop by Koreans or Malaysians

Impossible To Tell (My Two Joke Elegy)
by Robert Pinsky

To Television
by Robert Pinsky
Not a "window on the world"
But as we call you,
A box a tube

World

Wired Awake
by Ian Sample, Salon
Soldiers in the field go for days without rest. Now, an investigation has found the British Ministry of Defense has been buying a new stimulant in bulk.
