CARS



Stephen Shore, "Oklahoma City, Oklahoma," 1972
In my next poetry book, tentatively titled Cars, I juxtapose Soviet and American highways, gas stations, drive-in movie theaters, labor rights organizing, and open fields. You can find selections from the project in the links below.
Select Poems in [PANK]
"Yellow Taxicab Driver" in On The Seawall
"Schoolyard Games" in Pleiades
"An Old Ford Pick-Up" and "The Williamsburg Bridge" in Diode

​
my parents were born from a car. they climbed out
& kissed the car on its cheek. [...] when they were babies
my parents dreamt of being Lamborghinis. not
people.
