Love this poem — have always loved this poem — and am thrilled to see it in use as a title in this way! My memory is that it appeared first in the New Yorker in the late 80s. I even think that I remember when I first encountered it (in the magazine) at the old Shakespeare and Co. bookstore on the upper west side. In any case, it’s so nice to see it out in the world. Took a poetry course with KK once (before then) that had a lasting impact. Best of luck with the project.
