Re: The Trask Sisters
Earlier in the thread you noted that the poem was addressed to a specific woman. That alone makes the comparisons you draw here invalid. Never mind that Madsen and Penn are actors playing parts. Perhaps you could draw a tenuous line to Tarantino as the script writer and speculate that he may be a cop hater, but overall, the comparison makes no sense. I don't see how you can separate Trask from the work and say she did not hate/despise/revile/want to destroy the subject of the poem, when it is quite clear that she did. One thing that can be said about the poem is this: there is no ambiquity and no need to look for the deeper meaning, it is all right there.
Maybe reading poetry in general, but reading poetry of violent imagery as a crime deterrent? Do you have data to show this to be true?
