Do you have any idea how many poems were written and posted to The Nation during the period January 1965 thru December 1974, all concerning either the Vietnam War directly or war in general?

2,351 . . . that's how many.

Here is one I found to be very interesting . . .

"Solitude" by Howard McCord
From the May 3, 1971 edition of The Nation

For those of you who do not care that much for this type of poetry, be prepared to wear out your [DELETE] for a while . . . a loooooong while.
