random poem
I discovered Representative Poetry Online, hosted at the University of Toronto, ages ago, but it continues to surprise and delight nonetheless. It's like a fountain that I go back to for a refreshing drink from time to time.

Here's a cool poem from a new poet that I just discovered this past Valentine's Day, after searching for occurrences of the word "love" in the first line of every poem in the collection:
Happy Animal, by Natalee Caple
Text at http://rpo.library.utoronto.ca/poem/4468.html
It reminds me of a Robert Hunter lyric, where words appear for the sake of their sounds alone. Although the less than strict sensibility of the words lend the poem a whimsical, off-kilter sort of meaning that I find endearing.
