          When I teach modernist poetry in my American Literature class, I have my students read three Ern Malley poems and three poems from canonical modernists masters. They need to pick out the three “fakes.” My students do only slightly better than chance.

          Yeah I was thinking, that's funny as hell, but you can't really create *fake* bad poetry, it's just real bad poetry you personally know is bad

          Often parody is considered to be a mainstay of the genre. Princess bride, deadpool, I’d say is pretty hard to mock something well without eventually being regarded as a good funny version of the thing you were trying to mock.

          And we wonder what’s wrong with our society, when something assembled intentionally ineptly can still be considered High Art

          Honestly the Ern Malley stuff is kind of good by 20th century non lyric poetry standards
