I like reading poetry, but I wouldn't go to a poetry or open mic thing.

Nope, much of it's a load of whining, woe-is-me, I-hate-the-world, rapping, flash "stuff," I would think. (Oops! No offense meant to anyone. I'm sure there are those who are quite talented.) I would have liked to have heard Leonard Cohen, maybe some of those Beat Generation poets, those of the smokey San Francisco clubs back in the 50s though, perhaps.

Cannot stand a lot of drama Bill rather hear you sing.
