Poetry Matters

Dear Editor: At last, a nice change. Finally, “Poetry Matters” and Lorine Parks was missing in the July 10 edition of the Patriot along with the advertisement of Ms. Parks’ favorite named “hang out,” Stay Gallery.

Editor Eric Pierce said that this “hang out” has not received any special favors and yet it is continuously given free publicity by way of letters to the editor.

“Poetry Matters” basically is nothing more than short stories of which only one out of five is understandable or makes any sense to the reader. “Poetry Matters” should be dropped and replaced with the returner of “Poets Corner.”

The Patriot should not print any more Letters to the Editor or any other unpaid ads that mention this Parks hang out.
