Wow! I wrote those last two comments while drunk. Nazz said I should have a beer. :D They still read coherently -- if a bit too self-involved.

I apologize if I've offended anyone.
yejun.... "the greatest times" for me are the current times. you can hold on to your pastness and forever treasure those written words as if the poems of those days were and will be forever yours to behold and exclaim over... but I choose not to, thank you.
Why must you choose between the past and the present?

yejun asks: "Why must you choose between the past and the present?" while choosing the Elizabethan age as the greatest age for poetry. Is not claiming something to be the greatest put that above all others and is that not a choice made? Of course it is.

But fret not, my friend, for the selection of poetry, as for the selection of any type of art, is always a personal choice one makes for the choice that is made is solely based upon the enjoyment one receives from their choosing. Nothing wrong with that!

But like a good poem I kept hearing it over and over again.
