   No one's been discussing Creeley's poetry, Donkey.   
      
   George Dance falsely accused NancyGene of having plagiarised one of   
   Creeley's poems... which, upon investigation, doesn't appear to have   
   ever existed.   
      
   A discussion of Creeley's poetry would entail identifying the major   
   themes that he returned to over the course of his career, his   
   significance to the history and development of poetry, and/or in-depth   
   analyses of one or more of his poems.   
      
   You've made very few attempts to discuss anyone's poetry over the years,   
   and the few that you've made have been limited to copy/pasting text from   
   Wikipedia (usually without comment).
