That's something I would call "a life"!

I have no more dead horses to beat. Quick! Let's argue about teh valididty of the MFA.
It's real simple. If you don't think hte MFA is a valid degree, don't get one. If you don't think a certain kind of poem is worthwhile, don't read it.
While I was gettiing my MFA, I got married and divorced, got arrested three times, flirted with serious financial disaster, worked in a car wash, poured concrete and worked construction. hardly hothouse stuff. I also wrote a lot of poems, lerned something about how to teach and began to learn something about my craft.
