Parse this bookmash as you will: Making Love / Getting Busted / Memento Mori / Leaving Las Vegas / In Guilt and Glory. This is part of a complete episode.
Transcript of “Another Bookmash”
Here is another example of a bookmash, that accidental poetry that gets formed when the spines of books are next to each other. This one starts with the title of a book of erotic verse, and it’s followed by a book about incarceration, then two more. And it goes, Making Love, Getting Busted, Memento Mori, Leaving Las Vegas in Guilt and Glory. That one even rhymes.
The walk of shame, the drive of shame.
So stack your books up, see if you can make a found poem out of them, and send it to us, words@waywordradio.org.
