Gag! What Beans' weird line-breaks do
is mangle
meaning, just to give us an acrostic.
My own reaction to it
is so
caustic that D.P.
K. and I should never tangle.

Are things so dire that we need to dress formal poetry in free verse's clothing in order to get away with doing it? I doubt it.

(Except perhaps here in General Talk, where posting our own poems is strictly forbidden.)
