Poetry/Poets
Being a simple sort, my predilection for poetry doesn't extend much beyond the level of limericks.
What an audacious bard, is that MICAP;
A charming, insouciant madcap!
But what he says of haiku,
Is simply not true.
Poor Moot gets a migraine from that crap.
In another respect,
He's most right I suspect.
With no financing news,
We're left courting the blues.
Without it, in short, we're all fecked!
To speak between ourselves--for you will not denounce me to the tragic and all the other imitative poets--all such poetry is likely to damage the minds of the audience unless these have knowledge of its nature, as an antidote.
--Plato, The Republic, 595b
