[New-Poetry] Alien Body Snatchers Proliferate As Poet Laureates, No Neighborhood or Borough is Safe

[Jason Quackenbush]

I call it Nowhere City. There are worse places to be, better places  
to be, more exciting places to be, less exciting places to be. But  
nowhere on earth is a less important than The City of SeaTac. The  
idea of being the poet laureate of Nowhere City is sort of appealing  
for that reason alone. Maybe by virtue of the vacuousness of the post  
I can just be it by declaring it myself, kind of the same way it was  
great that Norton I was Emperor of America.
