Paul Muldoon Critiques Ke$ha’s “Tik Tok”

The New Yorker alerted us to the video above, one in a series from The Princeton Tiger’s “Discussions in Contemporary Poetry.”

“I’ve tried to be trashy.” —Paul Muldoon.

Muldoon is here tomorrow with Don Paterson. Tickets are just $10 for those 35 and under.

Hearing Paul Muldoon say “boys trying to touch my junk, junk” about made my head asplode.

Ke$ha’s song includes a reference to “King Lear,” according to Pulitzer Prize-winning poet and professor. This has made our day.

This is serious business. This is about poetry. A brief comment from our Book Bench editor Macy Halford:

Oh, Paul. We totally think you make it pop.

I just died.

Oh.  Oh oh oh.
