Replying to a comment on:

setting the record straight on April (Free verse) by poetandknowit

april is not the cruelest month. what does that dead fart know about seasons and to claim he was from this state of show me where ashcroft hoisted the government to new heights, lost to a dead man and then went on to use his apt knowledge of law to destroy all the wrongdoers who dare pick their nose in a pubic place unless it is a wal-mat, then, along with your slimy nose dropping, you can get the buy one get one free special during turkey season on the latest and greatest 30-06 with a big beast of a barrel and bullets to kill april, because if he had any sense and had spent more than two days in this fair state of perpetual show me, where only two amish were killed on the way to market in drive bys last year with the new movement of random acts of kindness, he - that dead fart, not ascroft, nor the dead guy he lost too - would know that november and december are unbearable in misery.

This poem has potential. It is not entirely coherent, but it has an excellent combination of ideas that, with a little work, could be well worth reading. "April is the cruellest month," is an allusion to the prologue to the Canterbury Tales where April is beautiful and warm, rather than rainy and miserable and dead as Eliot sees it. You attack Eliot as he attacked Chaucer which is good... carrying on the tradition, I suppose.
