Is anyone else just fed up with this guy?? I'm not too huge of a fan of his, although I do think that his manipulation of English grammar is fabulous and to be looked up to. I just think that sometimes he makes no sense, for instance, the Pink Locust poem is predominately about a flower, which throws me off a little bit, because I get distracted by the title and the early reference to the locust, which turns into a complete neglect of the locust analogy. Not that the poem is bad, but that it is frustrating. He uses so many different metaphors and analogies that it encrypts his message almost. I get upset because reading his poetry is hard work, but even when you delve deeply into it, you don't get anything too jaw-dropping. Consider me a Williams critic I suppose--maybe it's over my head!
