Reading poetry!

That's right, we're putting a little spin on things. This is for talking ABOUT poetry. Anyone big into poetry? I've mentioned this a couple of times but I'm a big fan of James Tate (if you have read something similar, this is your cue to mention it to me).

I actually thought of posting this (I figure at least one of these topics will be interesting) because I noticed a display at work for Dionne Brand, who was just named Poet Laureate of Toronto. I haven't read her poetry but I read What We All Long For in high school and it was genuinely a terrible book. And I sometimes worry that people think that that's because she's a black lesbian but it's really not. As with reading anything for a class all of its particular faults stand out, but I doubt I could have ignored them anyway. This is why there is no interest in Canadian writing. I kind of want to take a look at it because she might be an okay poet but then again it was just infuriating reading her novel.

Never stated that I was. You could say that I was saying that LR was totally into sucking cock, as he said that poetry was gay and then he talks about them.

Yeah well I talk about people who are gay too. They're okay sometimes. So long as they don't try to convert mah sons and keep their goddamn hands to themselves ya hear. Don't need no queer-o-sexual rubbing his grubby hands over mah body.

I could, but it's much more entertaining not to.

There we go. Fix'd, and in a rather festive manner. Really everyone was posting and talking about poetry in the other thread and no one was all that bothered by it, you don't have to take a piss if you're not interested.

Nah man, I'm just playing with you. I do that from time to time. But not in a dick sucking kind of way.
Anyways, I can actually get extra credit for memorizing plays that we have done in my english class. I will get on that pronto!

I know you're just joking around, I'm just totally against those one-word meaningless replies. I'd rather hear nothing at all and just let the thread die.
