Today, for $1.99, I secured access to 365 poems on my iPhone via Poem Flow. Whether you’re reading a poem by Derek Walcott or H.D., when you beam up the poem, the app will tell you — anonymously — where on the planet and when that poem was last read on Poem Flow. You’ll get the sense that there’s a community of readers out there with you on the same path sometimes in the unlikeliest places. There’s a little voluptuous mixture of surprise and satisfaction there as I call up another poem to enjoy.
