Salusinszky examines the writing styles of John Laws and Michael Leunig who, he says, are 'possibly the two most popular poetasters at work in Australia today... [2005]'. Salusinszky claims that both poets produce 'bad' poetry - Laws's poems being 'marked by a faux-macho quality' while Leunig's are 'truly, maddeningly, deeply faux-naive.'
