44. Steve McCaffery, "Some Versions of Pastoral"

Empson, Horace, et in Arcadio ego, Paul Celan... McCaffery brings a lot into play in this extended piece, complete with preface and epilogue. Rumor has it Josh Corey commissioned this piece so he could write the last chapter of his dissertation. There's some intellectual brilliance and some poetic value added here. 9 stars.
