Question: Did Anne Sexton and René Char write poetry?
Context: Le Marteau sans maître (] , The Hammer without a Master) is a composition by French composer Pierre Boulez.  First performed in 1955, it sets the surrealist poetry of René Char for contralto and six instrumentalists. René Char (] ; 14 June 1907 – 19 February 1988) was a 20th-century French poet and member of the French Resistance. Ilya Kaminsky (born April 18, 1977, in Odessa, Soviet Union, now Ukraine) is a hard-of-hearing Ukrainian-born Russian-Jewish-American poet, critic, translator and professor.  He began to write poetry seriously as a teenager in Odessa, publishing a chapbook in Russian entitled "The Blessed City."  His first published poetry collection in English was a chapbook, "Musica Humana" (Chapiteau Press, 2002).  His second collection in English, "Dancing in Odessa" (Tupelo Press, 2004), earned him a 2005 Whiting Award, the American Academy of Arts and Letters Metcalf Award, the Ruth Lilly Fellowship, and the Dorset Prize, and was named the 2005 "ForeWord Magazine" Book of the Year in Poetry.  In 2008, he was awarded a Lannan Literary Fellowship.  His poems have appeared in literary journals and magazines including "The Kenyon Review," "New Republic, Harvard Review, Poetry." Live or Die is a collection of poetry by American poet Anne Sexton, published in 1966.  Many of the poems in the collection are in free verse, though some are in rhyme.  The poems, written between 1962 and 1966, are arranged in the book in chronological order.  Their subjects are Sexton's troubled relationships with her mother and her daughters, and her treatment for mental illness. Le Visage nuptial ("The Nuptial Face") is a secular cantata for soprano, contralto, choir of women and orchestra by Pierre Boulez.  Originally composed in 1946–47 on a poem by René Char for two voices, two ondes Martenot, piano and percussion, the work, revised in 1951–52 in a version for voices and orchestra, was premiered on 4 December 1957 in Cologne conducted by the composer.  The score was further revised in 1989, removing the quarter tones present in the second and fifth parts of the 1951–52 version, while revising the orchestration.  A version with final revisions by the composer was premiered on 25 February 2014 at the Cité de la Musique in Paris during the closing concert of the festival "Présences" of Radio France. Roger Milliot (1927, Le Creusot - 1968) was a French poet and painter.  He served as a soldier in Indochina and as such had a pension.  His health problems prevented him from becoming an ornamentalist.  Like his idol René Char, he preferred provincial life to that of Paris and lived in Montauban, where there is now a museum of his paintings, mostly portraits of women.  His depression and feelings of frustration led him to suicide by drowning in the Seine river.  His poems were published posthumously. Anne Sexton (November 9, 1928 – October 4, 1974) was an American poet, known for her highly personal, confessional verse.  She won the Pulitzer Prize for poetry in 1967 for her book "Live or Die".  Themes of her poetry include her long battle against depression and mania, suicidal tendencies, and various intimate details from her private life, including her relationships with her husband and children. Transformations is a chamber opera in two acts by the American composer Conrad Susa with a libretto of ten poems by Anne Sexton from her 1971 book "Transformations", a collection of confessional poetry based on stories by the Brothers Grimm.  Commissioned by Minnesota Opera, the work, which is described by its composer as "An Entertainment in 2 Acts", had its world premiere on 5 May 1973 at the Cedar Village Theater in Minneapolis, Minnesota.  Anne Sexton, who had worked closely with Susa on the libretto, was in the audience.  It went on to become one of the most frequently performed operas by an American composer with its chamber opera format of eight singers and an instrumental ensemble of eight musicians making it particularly popular with smaller opera companies and conservatories.  The 2006 revival production of "Transformations" at the Wexford Opera Festival won the "Irish Times" Theatre Award for Best Opera Production. The Library is on Fire is an American indie rock band formed by singer/guitarist Steve Five in 2007.  Their sound has been described as art punk.  The band originally began from a manifesto of the same name written by Five.  Five took the name from a poem by French war poet René Char while working at Strand Bookstore, after weekly meetings over coffee with Television guitarist Tom Verlaine.  The band headlined their first New York show at Glasslands Gallery in 2008, with future Grammy nominees The Ting Tings opening. al-Kumayt ibn Zayd al-Asadi (679/680-743 AD) was an Arabian poet from Kufa that used the language of the Bedouins to write poems in praise of the Umayyads, as well as 'Ali and his family.  He was a schoolteacher at a local mosque until he was encouraged to write poetry instead.  He wrote several series of poems including: his "Mudhahhaba", his "Malhama", and, arguably his most famous series, the "Hashimayyat" or "Hashirrnyyst".  al-Kumayt was imprisoned by the caliph for his writings and escaped through the help of his wife.  He later received a pardon from the caliph and was allowed to return to Kufa.  While going to recite a poem, al-Kumayt was attacked by his Yemeni guards and killed.  It is believed that the "Hashimayyat" and it’s supposedly pro-‘Alid poetry led to his assassination.  While much of his poetry is controversial, it is generally not disputed that he wrote well of both the 'Alids and the Umayyads.
