The Fall Of America Comments

This is hilarious (the Klaus Kinski rhyme is great) . And yet there is a sort of arrmageddon feel to it with the portrayal of the USA as Babylon. I love the use of rhyme in this Herbert and the seriousness of the poem is ambiguous. But, to recall Monty Python: , ''The ambiguity is in the box'

Yes Herbert dear friend what hope for this country if they cant even keep a poets poetry in a safety deposit box On a poetry site so named Poem Hunter where the poet has to fall back on a fading memory to re-write his said lost works AJS
