In Defense of Bad Teachers
In Defense of Bad Teachers The Poet’s Eye loves to see the national chorus being raised by the Waiting for Superman movie and the unified media push on the subject of education reform. One thing that troubles me is that we seem to be, in the process of creating a sense of urgency, risking a witch-h...

Lightning Rod Needs a Scandal
W hat I need is a good scandal, you know, one big enough to really put me on the map. Bombings and assassinations are too extreme for my nature, I'm not a priest so I don't have any alter boys to fool around with. I'm not smart enough to embezzle billions. I've written some scandalously bad poetry ...

Is Colbert an Avatar?
More Comedy In Congress Stephan Colbert’s testimony before the Congressional Committee on Immigration was a welcome relief from the recent pomposity and bad circumstances exhibited in that building.

There is no greater joy than making the rules in your own house. My house always welcomes a joke because laughter is my cardinal element. but I've always liked the quote from Jubal Harshaw: "This is freedom hall. Do whatever you want.
