Easy Poet Costume Ideas

Have you decided on your Halloween costume yet?  How about being a poet!

This page from Poets.org offers ideas for dressing up as Emily Dickinson, Edgar Allan Poe, William Carlos Williams, Walt Whitman, and---Sappho! They are all easy to do.

For example, dressing up as William Carlos Williams requires no more than donning a toy stethoscope and rubber gloves. For greater verisimilitude, carry a bowl of plums or trundle along a red wheelbarrow full of candy.
