Poem: American Scholar

A poem in praise of the great American music critic, Patrick Bateman

When Patrick Bateman raved
about Huey Lewis, I listened
to The News. I already knew
Whitney was a great singer and

Phil Collins was a great drummer
but what a revelation that Huey
was so much more than a few
big hit singles and some prime

product placement in the movies.
Patrick Bateman might be a bad
date but he’s one of my favourite
music critics; still real to me damnit!
