I have to like any sonnet that crams NPR, the Southwest and Massachusetts into fourteen lines, regardless of what it says about them (and I'm not quite sure just what it's saying - I read the "liberal media" line as a joke on the liberal writer) and, thanks, Maryann, but it's not mine. But it's growing on me. The voice stumbles around enjambments like an NPR schlub, but it's consistent and enjoyable.
