Here is a factory made fresh by broken windows. Columns constructed from delirious dust split into a roomful of pictures that shimmer along walls speaking in tongues, destroying the Lake Poets in the process.
Elaine Equi, “A Bouquet of Objects”
Diane Ward, “Lovely Stuff”
Donna Masini, “Nightscape”
Yusef Komunyakaa, “ ‘Everybody's Reading Li Po’ Silkscreened on a Purple T-Shirt”
Michael Davidson, “Thinking the Alps”
NOTE: This cento’s title is taken from Michael Davidson’s “Thinking the Alps.”
Love it when you post a cento. Always looking at the sources, which hint at things to know about the poet.
