The intros were as good as the "poetry" itself--great send-up of that shite people say about poets at readings.

Yeah, I have the book and it's pretty funny. The best pieces are reprinted in the Slate article. "The Unknown" has become pretty well known.

I think a new poetic form lies in a hypothetical exchange between Rumsfeld and President Bush. A development of the pantoum perhaps? Villanelle?

Absolutely hysterical. He's a better poet than Bush (see "BUSH HAIKU").
