For several months now, I have been praising and recommending The Flexible Lyric but another essay collection co-edited by Ellen Bryant Voight and Gregory Orr is Poets Teaching Poets. In it she has an essay on "Image", but not less important is the imprint left on a collection of essays by the poets who chose them. If one is interested in the craft and hasn't yet read this (and TFL) I recommend them.
