Penny's Poetry Blog's featured poem for May:
May, by Christina Rossetti
I cannot tell you how it was,
But this I know: it came to pass
Upon a bright and sunny day
When May was young; ah, pleasant May!

I suspect that even in New York City, this poet is probably obscure to the average man on the street.
A typical modern New Yorker is probably much more likely to recognize, say, the poet Charles Bukowski.
HTH and HAND.
Most of the younger generation see hip hop and slam poetry as the center of the genre...
Ask a young person about it, in any town you pick.....

That's definitely true, and Instagram poets such as Robert Drake are also making huge sales even in Walmart and Target book shelves.
