I agree with Anny on this. Though I must say I'm miffed as my poem
"Pink Adobe: 21st Century Dawn" (which I might say won the magazine's
2004 Knight Award) published by the Minto Review, was *misquoted* by Jon
in his admonitory bouquet.

The aim of the poet is to awaken emotions in the soul, not to gather
admirers.

Now that you've read it, you should know that only seven of the nine
quoted
excerpts from poems published during 2004 in that most prestigious of
American
poetry journals were genuine: the other two I made up as parodies. I
have
no
doubt that those members of the list whose approbation for contemporary
standards of poetic excellence has led them to complain that Simic's
criticisms are insulting hogwash will have instantly spotted which ones
they
were.
