"I
co-wrote/co-found
this with a
grad student
when I taught
last semester.
It's
lifted from
a paper one
of the undergraduate
students wrote
about
readings
he attended."

LATENCY
REVIEW
I
attended a
reading on
March 30, 2000
at the Frick
Fine Arts Auditorium...
The
reader was
John (sic)
Skuldt. I really
enjoyed one
line in a poem,
"people
will believe
anything if
the lie is
elaborate enough.
"That
is all
I
liked about
his work. He
did write in
a conversational
and narrative
style.
However, I
got the feeling
that he was
a homosexual.
I was very
disturbed
when he said
in his other
poem, "His
friend poked
a 20 dollar
bill
up his asshole"
(sic). I felt
very sick.
He
did use metaphors
in his work;
love is a missile
(sic). He spoke
in a
very
monotone voice
and it seemed
that he desperately
needed a drink
of
water.
In another
one of his
poems, "Letter
to Vladimir"
(sic), there
were
a
lot of "s"sounds
and "ck"
sounds. There
was no rhyming
in his work,
but
it was narrative.
I was definitely
not interested
in his poetry.
I am
not
sure if it
was because
of his monotone
voice or the
fact that I
could
not
understand
his topics.
The
only other
poetry reading
I ever attended
was by Denise
Duhamel, who
is
very humorous.
I really enjoyed
Denise, but
I wasn't too
fond of
John
(sic) Skuldt's
poetry.
Overall,
I did not like
the atmosphere
nor did I like
the poetry.
He
definitely
looked homosexual.
