Bono poem about Elvis.
From what I read, not very good.
Causing a bit of a fuss about some of the language used too.

When visiting Dublin, how can you avoid mistaking Bono for God?

Well, God's not strolling along Grafton Street pretending to be Bono...

That's not a poem. It's a list of biographical attributes and opinions.

I have a wide definition of poetry, but Bloody Hell!

might actually disavow my nationality after reading that.

Hmm! Complete garbage as you might expect and not a poem.

Not really possible to distinguish between Bono and God. Both are ridiculous and impossible to believe in.

Elvis has left the poem.

How can anyone call this a poem? It is only a list and not a good one at that.

Listen to what Henry Rollins says about Bono and all will be revealed.

BONO stands for;

Boring
Old
Narcissistic
Onanist
