[New-Poetry] Does Most Contemporary American Poetry Have To Be Chopped-Li...

[Judy Prince]

Well, you are right, Al.  Doubtless you can sense my frustration and
impatience which have given rise to posing a universal that is not a
universal, but rather The Trend of The Decade, and one about which some
poets wildly disagree.  Of course, my brain bristles with examples, but then
my stomach wants breakfast.  And my stomach always wins.
Let me eat, run errands, and then bring the latest New Yorker upstairs to
the Mac and type in at least one example of TToTD.

Incidentally, I'm also going to do that which is considered either 'Very
American' or 'Very Uncool':  pray.  How else to face the day?

Best, of course,

Judy
