Query: BAD VERSE - Skip it

I have nothing against accessible poetry, but bad poetry masquerading as something profound--that I have a problem with. There are some wonderful accessible poets out there--Stephen Dobyns and Stephen Dunn come to mind. Read them, and you'll be able to see the difference.I found this book of poetry to be insipid and ultimately meaningless. I can't help feeling that these poems are geared towards a fading generation and constipated stereotypes that have been "done" to death: the pseudo intellectual, the neglected middle-class housewives, etc.Hume's poems basically never do anything interesting, never take any risks, never live life - forever roaming around the lonely room of this mundane house and making asinine observations about a bizarre world no one understands.
