Poetry Breaks: Sharon Olds Reads "Topography"
The Poetry Breaks series is a series of videos filmed in the late 1980s and early 1990s by creator Leita Luchetti, who co-produced the series with the WGBH New Television Workshops. Poetry Breaks features short videos of internationally renowned poets reading their work, reading the work of other poets, and discussing their takes on poetry in a variety of locations. The Academy of American Poets has partnered with Luchetti to present these videos once again.

"Yes, I have a patriotic poem that will make you blush"
I love Sharon Olds. Femininity and womanhood are her song that she sings in her poetry.
Wow! She was beautiful then.
She left out "under God" during that part of the poem that sounds like the Pledge of Allegiance. Just an observation.

Just a footnote to this: Although the original "Pledge of Allegance" originated during the American Civil War, the phrase "under God" was inserted only much later, being added in the mid 1950s.
Sexy poem.
Her work is not poetry. I would not even call it work. How about garbage? Yes, that is the perfect word for her work. Garbage. True brilliance: G. K. Chesterton
