Oh, the beigeness, the tedium, the unremitting mediocrity!
A lot of contemporary Australian poetry also suffers from this beigeness.
Hopefully the filter of time will deal with most of it.
It is possible to write interestingly in that sort of style but
a lot of people don't. (The same can be said of any style,
come to think of it.)
I can't guess which are the parodies. They all seem plausible.
Actually, I think the one about Minnesota and the snapping turtles may
have something going for it. What was the rest of it like (or was that it?)
Hah! maybe that's one of Jon's inventions.
