The Weak Force Entry #2

The 2nd Entry in The Weak Force segment is a pirated publication. It is a collection of poems from Ernest Hemingway. While he is one of the finest novelists of the 20th century, he apparently did not possess the same skill when it came to poetry. That is not to say that every selection is this book is awful, but none of them are great, and most of them made me wonder if someone thought he would sell more copies of his own shitty writing if he slapped Hemingway's name on the book. Sadly, after a bit of research, I found that these were in fact written by the man himself.

Sorry Papa. These poems suck. But I will never forget the time when you LISTED such words and names as: democracy, relativity, dictators, Mencken, Waldon Frank, broom, Dempsey, and Ezra, and declared that they were all "the shit". That really made me laugh, and did a great job of filling the page. And sir, you are right. Home is not only "where the heart is", it is also "where the fart is". Unfortunately, now I actually have an idea of what Hemingway's farts smelled like. So epic were his farts, that they stuck onto pages and became this book. Hey, my farts can't do that. Way to go Papa. *****
