Harriet Monroe, ed. (1860–1936).  Poetry: A Magazine of Verse.  1912–22.
 
Audience
By Dorothy Butts
 
From “The Passers-by”

OF what account the leafing trees—
Dead leaves in autumn? What were these,
Were there no poet’s heart to please?
 
Of you and me what can be said,
Who are not, are, and then are dead—        5
Without a poet overhead?
