I don't mind using illustrative examples from time to time, but I don't want to get into individual poet bashing, because it is not healthy for the mind.

Without naming names (because I cannot remember most of their names) let me say for the record: Most of Them. I end up reading a tremendous amount of poetry that I see no need to have been published.

I couldn't tell you off hand. Perhaps we could do a thread on classical poetry that was so bad (and required hours of interpreting) that it couldn't be published.
I would be happy to contribute to such a thread, but cannot contribute much to this thread.
