postmodern iambic pentameters give existence to this modern world they show no ultimate reality no spiritual meaning in art at all iconoclastic, groundless, populist it started in the sixties with Pop-Art Beat generation, Magic Realism and Barthes, Lacan and the rest of them hypothetical worlds of the artist it's guerilla poetry, doncha know attack and retreat, with no ground held.

I like it – especially the first line.

It would be nicer if you give reasons to proclamations. I agree though.

I like it - although I'm not sure if I should.

The closing metaphor is very well developed. I love this concept. Where I hold no clout in the poetic society, this poem would mean so much more as a persuasive piece instead of an informative. But excellent.
