Heard Robert Pinsky the new poet laureate of the United States interviewed on National Public Radio. He read the most astounding poem about the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire. It was not only a moving tribute to all the lives lost but the body of the poem contained an astonishing number of of sewing and garment factory terms reflecting such amazing understanding of the process and nature of garment construction and life on the factory floor. Problem: I would like a copy of this poem. Any information about an anthology in which is appears or any other information would be greatly appreciated. Web site hints could help too. Hildegard N.
