- Biografía breve
- Robert Louis Peters (October 20, 1924 – June 13, 2014) was an American poet, critic, scholar, playwright, editor, and actor born in an impoverished rural area of northern Wisconsin in 1924. He held a Ph.D in Victorian literature.[1] His poetry career began in 1967 when his young son Richard died unexpectedly of spinal meningitis. The book commemorating this loss, Songs for a Son, was selected by poet Denise Levertov to be published by W. W. Norton in 1967, and it still remains in print. Songs for a Son began a flood of poetry.

Bob began writing after his son died at an early age. Met the professor of Victorian Literature -- Swinburne, Symonds, etc. -- at UCI. The poems are not morbidly sentimental but offer comfort to those of us who have undergone bereavements. OK, everyone.
This is one of some 30+ short works of poems by Robert Louis Peters (born October 20, 1924), American poet, critic, scholar, playwright, editor, and actor born in an impoverished rural area of northern Wisconsin. He holds a Ph.D in Victorian literature, although I personally see no actual residue in this "Sow's Head" of his previous1965 study, "The Crowns of Apollo" on Algernon Charles Swinburne or other Victorians.

Found poetry: prose writing lifted from its original context and re-lineated to resemble verse. This is one of my favorite pastimes, and Peters & Hitchcock have come up with some beauties. I'll give you just one, very brief, example, from a public health text called Rats and How to Destroy Them (London, 1924):
Observation
It is a
waste of time
and money
to pour tar
down rat-holes.
