The American Poets' Corner was established in 1984 in the Cathedral's Arts Bay and bears on stone slabs the names, dates and quotes of notable American poets and writers. Each year, a board of electors selected two additional authors one poet and one novelist, for induction, and readings are given from the inductees' work. Starting in 2000 only one will be elected, alternating between poet and novelist.
Truth is One.
It does not change. But he whose name is graved in white stone shall last and shine when all of these are gone. And Love can never lose its own. All you have to do is write one true sentence. So we beat on, boats against the current, borne ceaselessly into the past.
