Flarf Poem of the Week


Alaska Poem

William Shatner on Conan O'Brian

Because flarf isn't just for unicorns anymore:

Alaska

by Sarah Palin


And getting up here
I say it is the best road trip in America
soaring through nature's finest show.
Denali, the great one, soaring
under the midnight sun. And then the extremes.
In the winter time
it's the frozen road that is competing with the view
of ice fogged
frigid beauty,
the cold though, doesn't it split the Cheechakos from the Sourdoughs?
And then in the summertime
such extreme summertime
about a hundred and fifty degrees hotter than just some months ago,
than just some months from now,
with fireweed blooming along the frost heaves and merciless rivers
that are rushing and carving and reminding us that here,
Mother Nature wins. It is as throughout all Alaska
that big wild good life teeming along the road
that is north to the future.

Ah, too bad. I hope you got to see it. If not, they probably have it streaming at the show site?
