Things that are awesome but reading them displeases me? I hope not.
Almost everything large numbers of people bother to praise is good for something - and something you can recognize. But not all of those somethings are necessary, and many are pretty blithely outclassed by works of other poets packed tight with everythings.
Aw man I love Pound. 'The Garden' is such a nice poem to recite to yourself as you walk around the green spaces of London, feeling intensely melancholic.

That said, Pound sucks.
