Rick, this is sharp and very bright. I've developed a prejudice (unreasonable) against poems about poems, but this has wit that engages the reader in more than just the poem for poets kind of stuff. Nice work.

I know what you mean.  I'm embarrassed when I write such an incestuous, inbred thing.  But it came aknockin, so I let it in.

Great line breaks, wonderful complex ironies told with simple, stark images. Love this, Rick. Will put up on fridge.

Stella, Silent, Jill, Thanks!  I think a poem about cold poetry is perfect for the fridge, Jill!
