and while we're griping

"it may not be fashionable to say it's unfashionable, but, "

poetry reader, you keep saying everything is unfashionable
that you read as if it were a badge. a very big badge. a huge
badge, so different in kind to those tiny lapel badges that
what-do-you-know? are back in fashion in my book.

'it's terribly unfashionable, but'
'it's unfashionable these days,'
'i know it's unfashionable'
'it may not be fashionable'

all these in twenty minutes.

i'm sorry but blandness sucks however you defend it. even when you champion it by demeaning others. mostly. few bland things are good and when they are they usually stop being bland, at least for a little while. your poetry was unfashionable, yes, but more importantly it was bland. your poetry was blandly bland and unfashionably unfashionable and dumbly dumb and said before and said again and sad before and sad again and sucky and sucky and sucky i'm sorry. you annoyed me with this unfashionable thing all the time. if it is rubbish who cares if it's fashionable and if it is good the same.
