jackie chan poetics

 in re ouyang yu's 'found poetry'

poetry is everywhere & everything

much like duchamp's readymades 

that art can be made from anything

still & yet the motive moves into why

would you want to make art from a slice of toast

or your grandfather's carburetor

when more glad tidings can be made from the hallowed 

halls of literature 

but remember jackie chan's fighting technique 

a style of fighting when there was no

other choice & when he did 

it was with whatever was at hand

such as a lamp, table, or chair

a plastic water bottle 

even your grandfather's 

1958 chevrolet bel air

can be made a weapon or a tool 

or just something cool

in antipoetry be

found in the texts of social media

poetry books

movies & sex

for it be made as a human art

ordinary as a stone 

& just as hard
