Richard, a question if I may. Why do you think this poem is wonderful? And why was it touching?

At first I thought lizbud was being mean (which I couldn't understand) or made a typo, but after I read the awful mean poem, I understood lizbud's reaction.

I'm not trying to start something, but I really need to know.

Perhaps this could be moved to the DogHouse, where Billy Collins apparently belongs?
