Ah, poetry

The article itself has a serious point and is worth a read, but what I wanted to make sure you didn't miss was this part:

I stuck to the poets of previous centuries for the most part, although I was vaguely aware that poets were not an extinct species, that dark corners of the planet still held strange specimens who wrote without meter or rhyme about The Orgasm and the joys of life as a Maoist rebel in Punjab, but I gave them a wide berth for fear that I might catch something and lose my ability to write with capital letters. 

Ah, the sweet smell of win.
