fogglethorpe,
Not be argumentative, but my "wholesale dismissal" was against the usual tripe that passes for religious poetry (and of course one cannot critique it becaue...fill in the blank). I am a great fan of some religious poets, especially Rumi. If you missed it I posted a poem I wrote called "Destroy this Temple" in the "who are you thread" you might find interesting.

You may want to talk to the mods about posting a poem on this thread, I got severely reprimanded for doing that (although it may be on one forum that it is strictly forbidden and not on this one) when I first joined, but I am fine with it.
Thanks for the comments,
Dale

How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?
The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.
