If I'm not mistaken, then it was T.S. Eliot..? Keep it coming, I'm absolutely in my element reading and discussing it..! I was equally in awe with "All Quiet on the Western Front" and have it on video too. I guess it's time to haul it out again.

Great words. Great man.

Thomas Stearns to his friends
not overly keen on some modern poetry, i find it must flow and make sense, some of the new stuff... HUH!!??!! sorry M. Dorn what you on about? please dont come back with the obvious californian plums are full of chemicals and WHAT!!!
err sorry each to his own....read this below!

Ed Dorn's parody of William's "This Is Just To Say"
the hazards of a later era:
variation on a theme

I would like to thank you
for the plums that were
in the ice-box, but
I'm afraid I just can't
do it--in the first place
it's not an ice-box, and the plums
having come from California
are a mix of over-ripe
and hard-as-rocks,
both undesirable states,
no doubt shot through
with systemic chemicals.
Add to all that
the fact that I put
them there myself
and you have
the whole sorry picture.
