I find poems by this fellow: Matthew Zapruder. I came across his work while looking through the archives of Electronic Poetry Review (final issue in 2008, but the site is still up, thank God). Here's a link to some of Zapruder's poems. I find his work becomes meditative as I ride the trains of observations and questions that chug rhythmically through his poems. Check out "April Snow" and all of the poems at EPR. Then, head over to the Boston Review to read "Dream Job." Oh, and don't forget "Scarecrow."
I really like his stuff. I saw him read a few years ago, with the Wave Poetry Bus tour. Looks like he has a new book coming in September.
