I suppose if there are beats who don't know how to read Pound, I
should help them out by letting Pound read to them.

There you go again, PJR.

Your obvious jealousy of your betters, Ferlinghetti now, Ginsberg
earlier, is unbecoming.

No, that's just another of PJR's many mistakes, this one
"underestimating the enemy".

Same reason the Brits lost the Revolutionary War and have needed help
from the United States ever since... just sayin'.

Call me stupid. I have absolutely no idea what you are just saying.
Seriously. I'm giving myself a headache here trying to figure it out.
I need a little help connecting the dots here. Anything you can do
would be greatly appreciated. Now my head's starting to get hot. Holy

We had ham and kale and mac&cheese. Mmm. I told Angel you said hi. She
said, "Fred? Do I know Fred?" I told her you were just some guy from

I'm a bit shy in real life. I would never presume to just show up at
your door, unannounced, and invite myself to dinner. Same for phone
calls. When I have spoken to Usenet personalities via telephone, they
invariably ridicule me on Usenet, saying I sound like an uneducated
hick. So, if I call you, are you available?

I think we went through this before, didn't we? If you don't feel
comfortable calling, don't call. No worries. Will doesn't like using
the telephone either. It's no big deal. I'm perfectly comfortable like
this or on the phone. Either way works for me. I don't believe you're
shy though. That's just more of your bullshit. If you knew me like my
friends know me you'd presume all those things. I've got some really
rude fucking friends. Like Robert. He's a CPT, cardio pulmonary
technician who sells C arms, if you know what those are. He's on the
road a lot, and stops here at all odd hours. He just showed up,
unannounced, as usual. That's our Robert Dalrymple, LOL.

No, if you'll read what I wrote again, I was referring to "PJR".

You could insult my reading comprehension and make insincere
references to my very real very serious neurological issue, or you
could take the time to explain yourself to someone who genuinely
doesn't understand what you meant. Life is full of tough choices. Of
course, some are obviously tougher than others.

Okay, I just assumed you were trying to insult me, since I'm non-
plussed that anyone would or could be confused by what I wrote.

If you really don't understand what I meant in those two senetences,
then I suppose I could explain.

I really don't care what the fuck you do, Will. Explan. Don't explain.
Whatever. To assume that I was trying to insult you is paranoid
thinking. It's insulting, not to mention just plain nutso. Fuck you.
I'm going to bed. You can apologize tomorrow. And it better be a damn
good one if you want to keep a friend, asshole.

I really don't understand what you meant. Please explain. It could
be that Corey and I are both dumbasses, unable to comprehend what we
read. I doubt it. It has been my experience that when the audience
does not understand the presentation, the fault lies with individual
presenting the information.

Wow.

Yes, I apologize... I had no idea you were so sensitive about all
this, get some rest and here's hoping you wake up back to normal again
in the morning, my friend.

Thanks for the explanation, but I didn't get the sense PJR was jealous
of anything. He did make a reference to ' beat morons' being able to
to read Pound, but he he did not state that *all* beats were unable to
read Pound.

Okay, Will...your move

PJR has a pattern of showing similar jealousy of and for the works (& fame)
of quite a few poets who are better poets than he could ever hope to be,
right offhand I can remember him demstrating this over Ginsberg, Dickinson,
Cohen, Hammes... and now the master poet Ferlinghetti.

So, you may not agree but I have my opinion and you have yours on the
matter, obviously.

Yes, we do. But, PJR has always explained the reasons he dislikes
certain poets. Constructive criticism. Isn't that what these groups
are for? It is not written into the US Constitution that one must bow
down before the greatness of Ginsberg, Ferlinghetti, or, for that
matter, Dickinson. (In case you haven't noticed, I despise Dickinson's
poetry. In college, if I required to write about Dickinson, I
invariably received a poor grade)

So, do you dislike Pound?

No, in spite of the fact that Ezra Pound was a bugfuck crazy Anti-Semite,
I've often found him to be often amusing, and an interesting storyteller,
here's a post I made about Pound a number of years ago:

http://www.myforumabout.com/art/poetry/re-the-will-dockery-archives-part-1-a-102902

----
From: Will Dockery
Subject: Ezra Pound: the cold coffee incident
Date: 2004-09-02 10:49:38 PST

"I had withdrawn in forest and my song
Was swallowed up in leaves..."
-Robert Frost

[from the review of "A Boy's Will" by Robert Frost]:

"I remember that I was canoeing and thirsty and I put into a shanty for
water and found a man who had no water and gave me cold coffee instead.
And he didn't understand it, he was from a minor city and he "just set
there watchin' the river" and didn't "seem to want to go back," and he
didn't care for anything else. and so I presume he entered into Anunda.
And I remember Joseph Campbell telling me of meeting a man on a
desolate waste of bogs, and he said to him, "it's rather dull here";
and the man said,

"Faith, ye can sit on a middan and dream stars."

And that is the essence of folk poetry with distinction between America
and Ireland. And Frost's book reminded me of these things..."
-Ezra Pound [excerpted from "Into my Own" by John Evangelest Walsh.]
----

In honor of Pound and live broadcasts.

I don't try to insult people. I'm not that subtle. If I insult you,
you know damn well you've been insulted. There's no mistaking my
insults. If I say I don't understand something you said, that doesn't
mean either of us are stupid. I have severe bilateral tinnitus. I
don't hear so good. Same goes for how I read. Sometimes I don't read
so good. If I ask you to explain something, don't get all pissy and
repeat yourself. Just assume I didn't hear you correctly the first
time.

OMG, LOL! You are truly laughable, Fred. Get over yourself and your
hero worship of PJR. He's nothing but an elitist fop who constantly
compares himself to the likes of certain poets of whom he is envious.
Your stated opinion of Dickinson is particularly revelatory. Of your
current sex life, if nothing else. Do your own homework.

Would it matter if Nazi skinheads loved your music, Will? For example,
if you found out that there was a subculture of racist thugs who

Okay, my honest answer is that I don't *know* what I would do, since I
don't have a "problem" like that and don't expect to.

But if I did, I guess I might do some research and see what others
that have been in a situation similar to what you describe did, which
may have been why I used Ron Paul's example, since he's currently
having similar problems.

Or maybe I'd check into what, say, Paul McCartney did when Charles
Manson took "Helter Skelter" and ran with it.

Okay, now that's an honest and direct answer for you... take it or
leave it.

On buggery, from Bogomil, for that's its origin,
Though it is not my practice, I do not think it a sin.

I see. So Ferlinghetti, and others who read Pound in books, are
"morons" who don't "know how" to read his poetry. Real poets like ~PJ~
"read" Pound on YouTube.

LOL. Reminds me of the Twilight Zone intro, "a dimension not only of
sight and sound, but of mind." I love the word READ and how it can be
viewed and interpreted in various contexts. Thinking of reading words
first, obviously, like these. Then think of reading music,
particularly the mathematical and auditory components that suggest
themselves into the reading process. Then think of reading people,
their actions, mannerisms, tones of voice etc. We all do it to each
other all the time as a means of navigating our way through both
intimate family and larger societal relationships. We interpret data
and we respond. The unique and peculiar value and facility of Usenet
is its textual representation, i.e. everything is reduced to black and
white, binary function. The white part is obviously the blank page,
the background, essentially nothing. Nobody has anything against
nothing, or nothingness. It has no value. The text is black though.
Therein lies the message. Of the two, I am personally represented by
this very specific black text you are reading, so if you don't like
anything you just read then you must have a personal problem with
black persons, obviously. It's in black and white right there in front
of you. LOL.

Well, ~PJ~ has written in the same vein in the past, so that would
have been no surprise. It is news (though maybe not really a surprise)
to find you agreeing with him.

So why do you think Pound (or Ferlinghetti, or any other poet) can't
be properly read or appreceiated by reading text from a book, but has
to be "read" on YouTube or the like?

> Pay attention, George.  Don't let the letters P-J-R drive you into a

What bothers me about ~PJ~, in this case, is that he often does advise
wannabe poets to read poetry when he doesn't see any value to reading
books in the first place -- it comes across, like so much of his
advice, as just a critical cliche he picked up in order to better pass
himself off as a critic.

Oh, sure: He doesn't like Ginsberg because (he says) Ginsberg's a
"turd" and a "pedophile". He doesn't like Dickinson because (he says)
she was "looney" and a "dyke". He doesn't like Whitman, or Poe, or
Longfellow, because all their poems are "crap."

Just what do you think is "constructive" about any of that?

No, I don't think the alt. poetry groups are not for dumping on
whomever you dislike. There are plenty of groups -- alt.usenet.kooks,
alt.fucknozzles, and the like -- for that sort of behavior.

Or immature trolls like ~PJ Ross~, either. So why are you always
kneeling to him?

>(In case you haven't noticed, I despise Dickinson's

I notice you liked at least some Ginsberg, though, until ~PJ~ told you
not to; then you began calling him a pedophile, too. Which, of course,
is what's next for Ferlinghetti, right?

Lots of people don't like Dickinson. Perhaps 10% or less of what she
wrote was worth publishing (same as any almost any other poet) - if
her heirs had limited themselves to publishing that 10% or less, she'd
probably have a much better reputation. Unfortunately, for reasons of
historical accident, her every word has been published, and the good
stuff is consequently hard to find. But that's not her fault, and it
doesn't mean the good stuff doesn't exist.

> So, do you dislike Pound?

Pound is someone who could have benefitted from the "10% or less" rule
even more than Dickinson. In his case, though, it was his fault, as he
wasn't dead at the time.

Back on topic, this is an excellent poem from the master poet Lawrence
Ferlinghetti.

Slim story, fat sound, whatever you want to call it, the good News, as
they say, is that the heart of rock and roll is still beating, and
from what I've seen I believe 'em. Now, the old boy may be barely

Right. Think about that. You congratulated somebody you've never met,
who you only know by name, who doesn't read the group, and who will
never know that you congratulated him, or what you congratulated him
for. Even if I told him, "Will Dockery says congratulations on the
Bonnaroo gig.", he wouldn't understand or appreciate your
congratulations because you have no sense of mutual understanding. He
wouldn't know what you mean. He hasn't done anything to warrant
congratulations from you. It wouldn't make sense to him, and there's
no way I can make you make sense to him if you don't make sense. And
you don't make sense.
