Better than anything the New York Times has run poetry-wise, though the article seemed... a bit slight. Nary a "resistance" in sight, though, which is a good thing.

I kept waiting for the introduction to end and the article to begin, and then it was over. "Slight" indeed. By being nothing it did manage to avoid being something bad in the ways these things are often bad, so I guess there's that.

Yes, I was unimpressed as well until Cohen showed up to steal the show.

Well, I'm willing to say I found the poems very powerful and appropriate to the present dismal moment.

For anyone who isn't familiar with the source of "Democracy," Cohen's "The Future" is a fantastic album.
