  they won't know the difference
  and if somebody does it'll be sheer gravy

  Mother, Hate, Kids

  Frank O'Hara, John Ashbery (2014). “Lunch Poems: 50th Anniversary Edition”, p.42, City Lights Books

• Too many poets act like a middle-aged mother trying to get her kids to eat too much cooked meat, and potatoes with drippings (tears). I don't give a damn whether they eat or not. Forced feeding leads to excessive thinness (effete). Nobody should experience anything they don't need to, if they don't need poetry bully for them. I like the movies too. And after all, only Whitman and Crane and Williams, of the American poets, are better than the movies.
