Re: bad poetry?

seymour was going on about championing
indiscrimination till doomsday and that that was
following the tao purely. but if one were to really
do this, he wouldn't be able to then discriminate
between good poetry and bad poetry. that he'd be
forced to give up poetry altogether; i.e., 'go beyond
poetry' into a higher spiritual realm.

i guess.
