Deborah, many thanks for calling this to my attention. My ears turned as red as my hair when I read it. I would note, however, that the critic quoted a very early poem from a time when I used far more Latinate diction and that I think my mature work falls far more squarely into the Frost/Hardy tradition than into the continuum from Dante to Geoffrey Hill that he is discussing. Wonderful essay, though.
Aliki's poems are truly marvelous. I can't get at Dick Davis' essay on the site, but here's the URL:
