    Good morning again my friend, great to see a friendly face here on the poetry newsgroups.


    Will Donkey, did you sit on that friendly face?


    Will Donkey is trying to bring in reinforcements to his losing campaign. Zod is dead, David Dalton is a nutjob, George Dunce only cares about himself, Uncle Jordy can hardly say "hi," and so Donkey wants to recruit the much-traveled Mother Chunks.


    Let's give MummyChunks credit for complying with the group rules.

    I've no problem with the Donkey having friends, so long as they don't disrupt the group.

    David seems okay as well.

    Dunce and Jordy, otoh, are problems. Fortunately, at the Official AAPC Facebook Group, we have the ability to block them from participating.



    We think that Chunks got called on her b.s.

    David Dalton is crazy.

    Dunce thinks he is smart and that Moose actually love him. He needs a good spanking.

    Uncle Jordy is growing more infantile with every post. Jordy Button.

    A long time fan of Kenneth Rexroth, one of the sort of "founders" of Beat poetry:

    https://www.poetryfoundation.org/learn/glossary-terms/beat-poets#:~:text=Poet%20and%20essayist%20Kenneth%20Rexroth,of%20the%20American%20middle%20class.

    ***** A national group of poets who emerged from San FranciscorCOs literary counterculture in the 1950s. Its ranks included Allen Ginsberg, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Gregory Corso, and Gary Snyder. Poet and essayist Kenneth Rexroth influenced the development of the rCLBeatrCY aesthetic, which rejected academic formalism and the materialism and conformity of the American middle class. Beat poetry is largely free verse, often surrealistic, and influenced by the cadences of jazz, as well by Zen and Native American spirituality. *****[/quote]

    Again, well put.

    No, Zod is alive and well, but like Jim Senetto he simply doesn't care about posting on Usenet newsgroups anymore, and I don't really blame them.

    And so it goes.
