Annoya is brilliant, but no less annoying for it. The constraints he places on his writing are rigid, but to what end, the form does not support the content, it doesn't do anything, except make it a schtick. We all have our own stances and biases, to me, Bok does not write poems, these are exercises, word games, linguistic tricks and sometimes senseless prattling.
He is a wonderful public speaker though, beware.
