Our own (barely posting anymore) Quincy Lehr posted on this on Twitter. He, and Jayne, are right. This is not a mediocre poem. It is a bad poem.
I'm working my through this Poetry. I just got to the 40-page Matthew Dickman poem...let's just say this hasn't been my favorite issue, though there are pieces here and there I enjoyed (fewer than usual, given the 40-page page).
