Is Poetry Dangerous to Society?
I've always been fascinated and amused by the way poetry, and the identity of the poet, are portrayed in popular culture. This clip from the opening of Roger Corman's 50s camp classic, A Bucket of Blood, pretty much says it all: The poet you see there, in a version of the "beatnik coffeeh...
Last night on "Parenthood" (NBC Tuesday nights) one of the main characters goes up to Berkley with her daughter to cater an event at the university. Part of the scene included a conversation between two about McSweeney's and later in the scene a poetry reading. So the poet goes up dressed in turtle neck and tweed jacket and commencing to read poems from his so called published book. And he reads the worst poems ever. I mean in real life who among us would have published these poems. So to make a long story shorter the writers of Parenthood are no POETS and obviously gave the rest of the world another bad impression.
