In this Tuesday, Jan. 15, 2019 photo Charles Skold, of Somerville, Mass., son of poet Walter Skold, sits for a photograph at his home in Somerville. Walter Skold, the late founder of the Dead Poets Society of America can be inducted to the society of fallen bards now that he's a published poet. Skold visited the gravesites of more than 600 poets and one of his criteria was that the subjects had to be published. Now, thanks to two of his children, Charles and his brother Simon, he's becoming a published poet, posthumously, with his poetry book: "The Mirror is not Cracked." (AP Photo/Steven Senne)
