Get Fuzzy by Darby Conley for October 29, 2017

I kinda like the poem. It has a certain je ne sais quoi.

Poet Nauseate.

Mike drop… you slammed it Satch.

Great Satch, straight from the heart.

I like it. It’s sort of edgy.

Can someone explain the random attacks on public broadcasting being interjected by some commenters? It is truly strange. Perhaps some trumpbot or putinritzer has targeted GoComics?

Poetry critic about to eat some dirt!

A searing commentary on prejudice and how we dehumanize others based on assumptions about them based on no information (which, I know, is the definition of prejudice, but i wanted to clarify that I’m not simply talking about racism (pedantic much?))!

Sadly, most amateur poetry I’ve heard is decidedly worse than Satchel’s.

Although I am a published poet myself (small magazines in the U.S. for longer poetry and Japan for haiku) I don’t feel I can judge modern poetry after Wallace Stevens—in my mind perhaps the last of the great poets. People now define poetry differently than we used to—everybody gets a shot. I liked Satch’s piece; it seems to come straight from his heart and uses the language of the observer. Good one, Satch! Let’s see the one about eating dirt!

It looks like Bucky was reading the blank side of the paper.
