Interesting History of "Bad" Poetry Word Origin and History of Poetaster "An inferior poet; a writer of indifferent verse. "1590s, from Middle French poetastre (1550s), from Latin poeta (see poet) + -aster, diminutive (pejorative) suffix. Old Norse had skaldfifl 'poetaster'." http: //www.dictionary.com/browse/poetaster Samuel Taylor Coleridge; The Poems of ST Coleridge; William Pickering; 1844 Samuel Taylor Coleridge writes: "Good verse most good, and bad verse then seems better / Received from absent friend by way of Letter. / For what so sweet can laboured lays impart / As one rude rhyme warm from a friendly heart? / ANON."

No art has been denounced as often as poetry. It's even bemoaned by poets: "I, too, dislike it," wrote Marianne Moore. "Many more people agree they hate poetry," Ben Lerner writes, "than can agree what poetry is. I, too, dislike it and have largely organized my life around it and do not experience that as a contradiction because poetry and the hatred of poetry are inextricable in ways it is my purpose to explore." In this inventive and lucid essay, Lerner takes the hatred of poetry as the starting point of his defense of the art. He examines poetry's greatest haters (beginning with Plato's famous claim that an ideal city had no place for poets, who would only corrupt and mislead the young) and both its greatest and worst practitioners, providing inspired close readings of Keats, Dickinson, McGonagall, Whitman, and others. Throughout, he attempts to explain the noble failure at the heart of every truly great and truly horrible poem: the impulse to launch the experience of an individual into a timeless communal existence. In The Hatred of Poetry, Lerner has crafted an entertaining, personal, and entirely original examination of a vocation no less essential for being impossible.

"Richard Hugo's free-swinging, go-for-it remarks on poetry and the teaching of poetry are exactly what are needed in classrooms and in the world."—James Dickey Richard Hugo was that rare phenomenon of American letters—a distinguished poet who was also an inspiring teacher. The Triggering Town is Hugo's now-classic collection of lectures, essays, and reflections, all "directed toward helping with that silly, absurd, maddening, futile, enormously rewarding activity: writing poems." Anyone, from the beginning poet to the mature writer to the lover of literature, will benefit greatly from Hugo's sayd, playful, profound insights and advice concerning the mysteries of literary creation.

This is simple story about a Federal Senator being kidnapped by a madman & how poetry found discarded in a gutter, a spiritual quest, and a lot of complicated people trying to be good whilst also being happy, accidentally foil his plot. Spend a day in the scrub that fringes the margins of steamy Darwin Harbor, in tropical northern Australia, and glimpse a world which is at once eerily tragic yet also irresistibly comic. In the end the madman fails in his plans: as for the rest? Join Proff, Croc, Senator Ryan, Ernie the Gimp, the Elephant Man, and a whole street-scape of no-hopers, as they become accidentally entangled in a madman's plans. Some learn something, many don't, one human being and a crocodile do come to an unfortunate end, and of course the press have a field day. To be good and happy: all at the same time? Is it possible? Some say yes, some say no; others sit back and watch clouds...

The editors of this legendary and hilarious anthology write: "It would seem at a hasty glance that to make an anthology of Bad Verse is on the whole a simple matter . . . On the contrary . . . Bad Verse has its canons, like Good Verse. There is bad Bad Verse and good Bad Verse. It has been the constant preoccupation of the compilers to include in this book chiefiy good Bad Verse." Here indeed one finds the best of the worst of the greatest poets of the English language, masterpieces of the maladroit by Dryden, Wordsworth, and Keats, among many others, together with an index ("Maiden, feathered, uncontrolled appetites of, 59;. . . Manure, adjudged a fit subject for the Muse, 91") that is itself an inspired work of folly.
