Submit Who goes to poetry for safety, anyways? - Salingerisms

This is for all J.D Salinger fans, addicts, devotees et al.
For the people whose lives were changed by Holden.
For the people who intonate words to sound like Franny.
For true-life recluses.

No haters, naysayers,
and especially no goddamn phonies.

As one limping man to another, old Zooey, let’s be courteous and kind to each other.
