Wayne,

In the US you need to write to New Directions. They are very decent
(financially speaking)in granting permissions. If your book has distribution
in the UK, you'll also need to contact Faber & Faber. They are not so
decent, come to think of it they are blood-suckers, out for the filthy
lucre. You'll need to argue them down, which isn't easy. (My experience
dates from the middle nineties when I co-edited the POEMS FOR THE MILLENNIUM
anthologies -- so it doesn't correspond exactly to your situation, but
should be close enough )
