[New-Poetry] Poemette on the dearth of postings these pastfewdays:

[Skip Fox]

Good. And its simple directness has much to recommend it.

 

How 'bout: "To read Mr. Fox, one needn't be literate. One barely needs to
know how to chew."

 

Or: "At least a lobotomy, by contrast, might be of _some_ use."

 

Or: "Skip Fox mistakes indifference for license and thus pollutes culture
with his miscreant notions of verse yet once more."

Until I read this book, I thought no one could possibly write worse poetry
than Skip Fox.  (Or choose your favorite.)

 

This has the advantage of making two enemies.
