Round 15

Yusef: "Fox Trot Fridays" by Rita Dove

Bob: "Long after (Mallarmé)" by Ruth Danon

Bob gets off easy this time. The Danon poem is charming but slight; doesn't make me think much of Mallarmé. The Dove, on the other hand, is sentimental and clichéd. She tries to mask her clichés "Thank the stars" instead of "thank your lucky stars" but why not eliminate them completely? Bob wins again.

After 15:

3-9-3
