Yeah, I don't like his politics either, but neither did some of the writers who wrote about him.

I do like his politics but don't think he's doing a great idea integrating them into his poetics. The first grade/GOP thing awk.

Did he write that? Or maybe that wasn't one of the 100. I thought a different poet wrote a poem everyday for 100 days--didn't notice his poetry. Duh.

I thought that was the poem you were talking about but didn't realize he wrote it. Because it was kinda silly to be frank.

Odd fella, that man. At least he likes poetry. Gotta be something good about him.
