Codrescu suggests that readers make up a pseudonym under which to do their reading, “free of the name they carry like a sack of potatoes on their backs and hear called out in derision or displeasure by parents and teachers.” It’s a totally great idea.

This week in August we rise from the obscene muck of our national shame to turn our lyric guns on the butcher of Russia. We will also lie down in the grass by the stream and think about nothing. We let poetry do our job.
