ps and an aside (re 'repetitious themes)..I remember after Quentin Tarrantino's second film (both involving underworld/gangster themes) critics worthily advised us all to wait and see if he had more than 1 string to his bow...and I sat there and thought...John Ford..22,000 cowboy films and...erm...no such criticism!
haha (AE) don't tempt me...please....
Hi Tommy,
And welcome to WOL. I liked this brief pop at our past Laureate very much - sort of like "The Condensed Shakespeare Company!" It might be good to expand this idea to other poets guilty of the self-indulgence of repetitious themes. (I guess that's probably all of us then!)
Regards,
A.E.
Indeed ALL are targets having written easy targets at that. for all the sneering I should have such a way with words!
