New Stevie poem

[DownOnRodeo]

I welcome this untitled addition to the American poetry canon.

The sparing use of pronouns engenders poignant verisimilitude.

And scansion is aided by the flawless employment of rambolic blathameter.

In a mere fifty lines, so much is said -- but also, so little.

Brava.

Did David write this for you?

I didn’t, but I share Joe’s enthusiasm for this exquisite work of art.

Would you say that to Bob Dylan?

I disagree. The scansion would be aided if the poem were haploid. But in this case it's diploid.

Perhaps she did 50 lines.
