Poetry:

Visitors to San Simeon by Turner Cassity
Cinematic History by Stephen Edgar

Wave by Steve Mitchell

I now have a blog on the Wordpress. I remember back when blogging first got popular and I was all indignant over people shortening "web log" to "blog"---I thought you might as well call it a bjournal, which would be just as much a nonsense word. But I've softened a bit now. I reckon I'll write about poetry related things there from time to time, so check it if you're interested.
