I wonder if most members of the church know what a Poet Laureate is.

I'm just saying that I don't think many church members are going to lose sleep because the US's official poet is a lesbian.

Just once I wish our Poet Laureate was a hot porn style lesbian. I'm getting sick of the blatant discrimination in favor of front butt fanny pack wearing lesbians when awarding the plum poet laureate gigs.

She looks like a mix of Donald Rumsfeld and Janet Reno.
