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'.

Hope you have a good day also. Say hello to Angel for me, and ask her
to please post to Usenet more frequently. She's very entertaining.

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 know this is true, and would love to be able to drop in sometimes
and hang out with y'all.

The several hundred miles between us makes that pretty much impossible

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

Perhaps when you get bthis problem with your head fixed, maybe your
reading comprehension will improve again... hopefully.

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

Thanks for finding it, Fred.

I never knew that Manson didn't run... I guess running would be

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
breathing, but the heart of rock and roll, THE heart of rock and roll
is still beating. Remember Baby Huey? Now THAT was one lovable
fucking duckling. LOL.
