GRIFFINS
SEE YOU AT THE GRIFFINS
ultra-contemporary a transcontinental rumba
of the global digital This a description of the 5th
Canadian of colour to be nominated for a Griffin
Trinidadian-Peruvian Shane Book Shane says:
Poetry doesn’t get a lot of laughs
I wonder if there have been any invisible minorities
a.k.a. Jews nominated They might describe my
poems for instance as: a transcontinental hora of the
global digital +funny don’t ask!
Seriously I don’t care how they describe my poetry
$75,000 would give my dark+depressing stanzas a ring
of dybbukery A #sellmysoulatthecrossroads infamy
And yes I would take the money Though I cannot help but
wonder if the Muse could then be wrested from the front
row at CHANEL #callmeshallow Go ahead
