This is not poetry! It lacks a "beat", even when read aloud, and reflects nothing beyond some semi-structured thoughts.

Hat tip to the Chocolate News on Comedy Central?

Mr. Pawlak,
You are obviously not familiar with Ms. Angelou's work. Or of David Alan Grier. Check it out:

Mr. pawlak,
You obviously do not know what constitute good poetry...do you think this was intended to be serious stuff?

I wonder if Maya would've spelled "inaugural" correctly.
Posted by: John Foust | December 02, 2008 at 01:06 PM
She didn't. I just fixed my mistake.

Stay classy, James.

What did I do? Why is it funny when DAG performs it on Comedy Central but somehow derogatory when I post it?
Liberals!

I lost a little bladder control first time I saw him do this and lacks a beat? Are you not familiar with Ms. Angelou's work because this is dead on.
Ain't that a bitch?!

Oh, and I give it two snaps up with a twist.
