Poetry Night

by Cassi Clark, 1998

 

Four girls silently

listen to drunk boys

pretend to be

Keasy or Karoac

attempting honesty

emulating emotion.

A beatnik party

in a new millennium,

funky music rocks

rhythms of poems

spouting ailments

of a tumultuous society

repeating words

sounds for effect,

don’t you see they’re

changing the world

right here

in this select group.

Impressed?

Wanna neck?
