Thanks, cacian. I enjoyed the "murk", "curk", "perk" sounds in yours. I think your parody, Hawkman, was an improvement on the original. As far as liking in general WCW poems, AuntShecky, I don't recall having read enough of them to be able to say.

Terrific parody of the good doctor's dictum against abstractions in poetry.
You might like Paterson (one of his book-length poems.) My favorite William Carlos Williams poem is "To Elsie." I'nm sure that you would find that one appealing and affecting, YesNo.

Come to think of it, I did read a short story of his, "The Use of Force", in my daughter's copy of The Norton Anthology of Short Fiction. After reading it, I recall thinking that it made more sense than "Red Wheelbarrow". I'll try to find "Peterson" and "To Elsie". Thanks for the recommendations.
