The Longest Poem in the World

Banality is the root of all art. I think the idea of a poem written by the entire planet* is rather romantic myself.

I think it falls beautifully into the romantic surrealist genre, and appauld it for doing so. I wasn't criticising banality, though I would disagree with with your commment on banality is the root of all art. What are you basing this on?
