April is National Poetry Month in the US and – seeing as it might be the last one – I’m celebrating by sharing recently-released recordings of poems from my collection Noisesome Ghosts made by Graham Farram.

[086] “The Disinterment of Rosa Spadoni” (1950)

Graham’s reading:

Image: The University of Camerino, Italy: where parapsychologist Giuseppi Stoppolini was employed when he received a message from a woman who at the time had unfortunately been dead for five years.

Dear Leader has proclaimed
in his best Darwinian vain
that only the weak will fail
in his Doge eat dog economy
taking America back
to the glorious
laissez faire 19th Century
when robber barrons like he
roamed wild and free
unencumbered by government
and unnatural chains of morality

The once immaculate debutante
clad in her soiled white gown
loves to hang around
with disheveled metal bands
on the disjointed side of town
with all the other
disaffected groupies
and assorted hanger ons

Her concerned
family and friends
abduct the former suburban princess
to perform a radical musical intervention

They tie her rebellious ass to a chair
and subject her heavily pierced ears
to a heavy rotation
of Taylor Swift
and Katy Perry

After sweet saturation is complete
a steady stream infusion
of bubble gum pop
is pumped via IV
into her heavily tattooed arm
to close out the cultural correction session

Our reformed princess seems to have
learned her indoctrination lesson

Returns to the mainstream
to one day assume
a pre programmed life
of doting child bearing wife
and servile homemaker

Baking cookies
while humming
Bruno Mars tunes
while group chat bitching
to her frustrated friends
about their out of control kids
