Understanding poetry

I'm still reading "The Ode Less Travelled", but have also started surfing the internet for poetry sites. Here's a nice one which offers a "Course in 8 Lessons" to understanding poetry.

It complements Stephen Fry's book quite nicely - Fry emphasises writing, and teaches metric, rhyme and forms. This one looks at metaphor, imagery and how to read a poem.
