If Mister Brackets would rather be a jacket, then all hail him.
I would agree heartily with his implicit statement that what a poet
writes is more legitimately interesting than how he/she looks, or any
marketing wiles employed by those who publish his work, decisions which
ultimately have very little to do with the Author, real or feigned or
simply asserted.
