This week, the poet on poets.org's featured poet page is Kenneth Patchen, born in Niles OH. It's good to see some of the beat-era Northeast Ohio poets remembered-- Patchen has always been one of my favorites, partly because of the way he integrated poetry and art in his witty and whimsical picture-poems series.

Love Patchen! Thanks for this!
Patchen does not get the respect he is due.
He read some poems with a jazz combo - is it out on CD?
Great writer, thank you for this.
Patchen is a great artist. I don't agree with his eternity.
Yes - Patchen's recording with the Canadian Jazz group is available on CD. Click here to order it.
