Rodney Jones in Parnassus.

March 11, 2008 mariegauthier2 Comments

From Rodney Jones’ poem “On Criticism” in the new issue of Parnassus:  Poetry in Review:

Without taste, criticism inflates to theory.  The technique

and not the art.  The theology without the religion.

The critic fails when he stops thinking of the sweetness.
