Do you really think that any idea that comes into your mind is a fitting one for a poem? Can you imagine how passe and wearying are the "shock-the-bougeois" tactics of the 1960's which you are still employing? Is there any place in your world-view for discipline and careful thought? For goodness sakes, my son, try some. Dear Chris Emery,

I am much saddened to read your poems online, and reminded of Wilde’s comment
that men kill the thing they love. Do you really think that any idea that comes into your
mind is a fitting one for a poem? Can you imagine how passe and wearying are the
“shock-the-bougeois” tactics of the 1960′s which you are still employing? Is there any
place in your world-view for discipline and careful thought? For goodness sakes, my
son, try some.

Do you really think that any idea that comes into your brain is fitting subject for a poem? Don't you see how passe and wearying is the old "shock-the-bourgeois" tactic of the l960's? For goodness sake, my son, get control of your mind. Sincerely, Mark Christhilf Dear Chris Emery,
