Proteins are now folding
in a most peculiar way.
I can't remember Tuesday
or if Talese was gay.

I think love may be stochastic,
but you would have to say,
for now I will just sit here,
and wonder why we pray.

I still remember Jesus
and some things he liked to say.
But like the fishes in the Douro
I bow my head then swim away.

"Proteins are now folding

Sounds like you are talking about dementia due to prion disease...Is that correct?

Seemed to be the likely reading. Presumably, writing like he does, hack wants to hear this kind of line from someone, so fine:

your poetry is too smart for Jack of Hearts, who is not in the club and doesn't understand.

Why there's a reference to Gay Talese in here is beyond yours truly. And why is religion mentioned, who's praying? And other things.

Whatever. Would rather have hack than not have hack, and would rather have read this than not have read this. Stinker.

Jack is the stinker here. He is rarely wrong. I didn't fully understand this either of care that I didn't fully understand it. I didn't understand by the end of the title. I suspect I could understand more with uncle google and I also suspect I may not. But good is good.

Oh, not to imply that the poem is a stinker. hack is the stinker because in spite of the fact that this reader found this poem relatively incomprehensible, he still couldn't dismiss it. so stinky hack.
