Why don't leninist poets learn to condense their verse
into haiku or, at least, a sonnet?  Send a copy of
"Rhyme's Reason" to that man.

I dont favor him getting the boot but that's a pretty
mediocre poem...at best.  If he had started screaming 
"Moloch! Moloch!" towards the end of the poem, I might
have been more impressed.
