All I'm saying is this guy needs to think before he writes. There are MILLIONS of poems out there. SONGS are essentially poems. Most literature could start off as a poem. And for someone who writes A LOT, shouldn't he be able to appreciate something so wonderfully simple yet complex as a poem?

Poetry
First off, I don't like this guy. Let's get that straight right off the bat. Secondly, OF COURSE we need a month dedicated to some form of literature and personally I think poetry is the smartest choice. There's a poem out there for everyone, and different styles appear to different people. Obviously, this man has not found his poem yet. I can only hope he will in his long, sad, anti-poetry years to come. It pains me to think that he cannot enjoy the thought process that goes into poetry. Maybe he's not a rhyming kind of guy but what about haiku? or maybe he'd like James Joyce (they could have a nice long depressing chat)
