statement regarding ryan downey's poetics...i think.

1. for some people poetry is useful, for others it is not, and for most it is probably some kid with a beret in that stupid fucking eatery on Saved by the Bell the name of which i can't recall.

2. poetry derived from children's book titles can be used to pierce the hearts of children.

3. all americans are children.

4. piercing the heart is actually the easiest and most humane way to show someone you care about their health.

5. poetry can be created, or discovered, or invented.

6. poets define words such as created, discovered, and invented.

7. statements regarding one's poetics ought to be convoluted.

8. dinosaurs can be leading representatives of the young-young-poets movement in some cases.

9. young-young-poets is a label i just created, just like poetry is a label we collectively create.

10. there should always be ten parts to a statement regarding one's poetics.
