This poem has few words
But it does rhyme
Isn't it worth a dime
Or at least more than some turds

I dig your user name.

Turds, indeed. Your poem exploits the tension inherent in the author-reader contract (noted by Stanley Fish, Wolfgang Iser, et al.) to reject traditional notions of authorship and textual efficacy, ultimately playing into the post-structuralist linguistic netherworld of Barthes' later criticism. While this position is somewhat out of place in light of more recent developments in modern poetry, it is nevertheless a relevant and expressive iteration of the "crap poem" in the postmodern mode. You, sir, are a literary genius on par with John Ashbery. Or Robert Frost, whichever.

Well if that's your poem, you have miles to go before you sleep.
