The Fastest Poetry-Slinger(s) in the (Post-Modern) West

9/7/2007 by Exquisite Corpse – Add to this poem and make it EPIC

He assault-rifles through sonnets,

shoots stun-gun imagery

from the hip; removes whole-

paged rhymes, like Calamity Eve cloned:

campfires and stars in her

eyes, whiskey-locks scoured

by winds from Four corners:

Silko, Alexie, Churchill, Dorn—

scalping all the Dead White Guys, cannons

blasting Rorschach chalk lines down,

delineating Alamos:

serials of killer prose.
