Exquisite Corpse Poem
For all those who contributed, a thank-you and a big, wet sloppy kiss! We'll have to do it again sometime.
Here's the original post about Exquisite Corpse. I took a few liberties trying to make it work as a poem, but if someone wants to try their own spin on these lines, have at it!
Cialis Blues
He came this minute, a blurred gray shape
roaring out of a dive, out on the lawn
I heard such a clatter,
I sprang from my bed
to see what was the matter.
My expensive fake penis
doesn't work
when the one you love
is 72.8% water.
An attitude of unattachment
was essential to existence
in liminality.
He had Scottsdale-type snobby girls in mind.
He had drained the cup of gloom:
it filled anew.
Alas, the penis was for use
in continental U.S. only.
This unusual and free exhibition
fuses graffiti and calligraphy
in a contemporary style
dubbed “urban Islamic art.”
As the lights start to dim,
noise from the crowd
quickly turns
to silence.
