Ultimately, whose poems are these? Were they authored by these guys? If
so, look how they've gotten published poets to read their work.
Being unknown allows one not to worry about who gets pissed off at a person.
And now we're thinking and talking about their poems. Fairly clever --
times three thousand.

The consensus of the comments on the Poetry Foundation seems to be that the
texts were produced by a poetry generating program.
In which case, not even the authors or "authors" will have read more than
the ones attached to their own names.
Imagine the tedium of reading through 3000+ pages of computer-generated
twaddle.
:-(((
Oh, well, as it's all electronic, at least no trees were sacrificed in the
production of this epic.
