Ah, another successful day of doing the Devil’s work. The Devil was here. I can still smell the sulphur…
I want to call this “fantastic,” but I suddenly realize that that would be akin to calling the sun “bright.” No, it’s much more than that. It’s like the tax-returns one gets from a life-time of travelling to troubled places…
I hope readers/viewers will click on the illustration to see it larger - especially the flying Maizie triplets!
Amazing piece - blows me away! Such a great accompaniment to Elder’s piece.
All I can say is “fan-freakin’-tasticly cool.”
Too darn great a counterpoint to that wild ride of a poem.
Way cool. More, please.
The first three lines especially of Karl’s piece really hit me. And “stacked vapor” is delicious. The poem’s so good I’m going to try the form myself.
I’d have to say this is some interesting work. I rarely see stuff like this anywhere else… a true Karl Elder poem. Very rare, very original… great piece.
