David Ray (born May 20, 1932), is an American poet and author of fiction, essays, and memoir. He is particularly noted for poems that, while being rooted in the personal, also show a strong social concern. Ray is the author of twenty-two volumes of poetry, including "Hemingway: A Desperate Life" (2011), "When" (2007), "Music of Time: Selected and New Poems" (2006) and The Death of Sardanapalus and Other Poems of the Iraq Wars (2004).

As tough and important as its subject, this book does more than collect the probings of several dozen American poets on their nation's nightmare-it calls into question the purpose of poetry. If poetry exists to make us feel safe and erudite and well-mannered, then the book fails utterly. If poetry exists to speak soul-to-soul of the heart's pain and the body's vivid longing and the soul's singular purity, then it succeeds completely.

Conversely, most contemporary gay poets and playwrights are free from such constraints and have created a remarkable body of work. However, aside from a few notable exceptions, gay artists of earlier generations felt compelled to avoid sexual candor and to resort to silence, evasion, and metaphoric indirection to speak the unspeakable. But most contemporary gay writers are free from those constraints.
