Excuse me, but your assertion that most poets are assholes is simply that, an assertion. Completely unwarranted. Perhaps you mean to say most of the participants on this site are assholes. In which case it could be argued that most of the folks here are only excercising their freedoms and their anonymity, of which there is so little of in this beleaguered existence. What would you do/say if you knew you could get away with it? That sort of thing. What I mean to say is you really should spend a moment contemplating your own remarks before you flippantly and offhandedly soil the name of so universally revered and diverse a group as "The Poets".
