We noted a few days ago that Marcus Goodyear had posted an article on TweetSpeak Poetry in Books & Culture, published by Christianity Today. Micah Mattix, who authors the First Thoughts blog for First Things, took exception to something Marcus said, or thought he said, and posted an article about the Books & Culture article. The Mattix article now looks to have launched something of an online controversy, judging by the comments.
It seems to us that it is a great honor to be argued about by literary figures.
