Analysis and comments on The Art Of Drowning by Billy Collins

Comment 3 of 3, added on April 12th, 2006 at 7:24 PM.

this is my favorite poem of all time... coming from someone who actually
knows that they're talking about. and who has read pleanty to compare and
contrast from. So it seems "bertie" has no idea what the hell she is
talking about.

Hi. This poem is the biggest load of shit I ever did see. I have noticed
that single-celled amoeba who have yet to evole passed the basic stages of
life could write better peoms than this with there feet, just like a
hillbilly. You have all the talent of a inbreed llama who has no face but
paints with his excrement.

i can write better poetry when i am straining to remove the shite from my
gouch area, with a loofa. You will die soon as i will smite you, you stupid
inbreed. fuck you, fuck you in you stupid ass!!!
