Snarking the Poet

Topic Drift Knows How to Do it Right

Just read and learn as Topic Drift opens a can of snark and dumps it all over Carolyn Forché (whoever that is. Some obscure person calling herself a poet, apparently):

She calls herself a “poet of witness.” Bah. No such thing. One might just as well call oneself a “nursemaid of trout” or “lieutenant of puddings” or “Human Resources Director” or “lumberjack of peri-menopause” or “emperor of ice cream”. All nonsense. That last one’s taken, I think.

You want more? There’s much more.
