Narcs
 

I have noticed of late (okay, for a good while now), the tendency of certain poets to run crying to authority when gainsaid, butt-hurt, or treated with something less than total respect for their blinkered, pedestrian ideas. You're artists, you Bozos! Stop acting like narcs!

Bozo? I'm telling.

Wait. What do you mean? I wanna play. Here? NYC? The Universe at large?

There are poet-police? I knew it!

I'm Vaguebooking for a reason, but look, PM exchanges can get heated, and provocations have a history of provoking people. There's way too much running to moderators of late when tone gets sharp, or someone suggests that a wildly bigoted view of black people might in fact be a bit racist.

Having caught the train, I agree. People who send Santa the finger when he is at the neighbor's house should expect black notes in their Christmas stockings.
