Of course, irony is a term much misused, but for the purposes here it may mean: expressions that subvert intent, a sort of smirking duplicity.-

I am fond of a particular type of irony: specifically, stuff that's intentionally so bad, it's worse.
Here is a poem I wrote, on the spiritual significance of crop failure in American rapper society:

Ratchet up them HOES
by Fernadium Birmingwatt
Them farmers be all like
RATCHet up tem HOES
And then they till the soil
and then they till their TOES
and them farmers feed their families
with sick BEETS
them families be dying CAUSE
the beets are so leet
Another one, on the uniting effect of sports drinks on American politics:
Mr. Gatorade-tm goes to Washington d.c.

chug chug chug chug
chug chug chug chug
the capital hill shouted to
BRACk OBOMA

A final one on the grim truth of dragon fruit.

by Fernadium Birmingwatt
draggin fruit

GRAPES of wrath
I hereby condone Fernadium on these latest compositions! I'm not sure what Ms. Majerus will think of a guest writer on your blog, especially Fernadium-- I assume Fernadium was pardoned after last time. Is this going to be a regular thing? If you see Fernadium again, could you ask him what he did with that draft of the Apterous Anthology? I think he'd be a good candidate to compose the new Uni High epithet compendium.
ReplyDeleteI have known Mr. Birmingwatt for quite awhile, perhaps longer than anyone other yourself, and yet I have never seen this side of him. I can't pretend to grasp the deep meaning expressed by his very Nicholas-esque poetry, but I do know that they're quite a unique work of art.
ReplyDeleteMr. Fernadium is always welcome on any blog I read. His wit, wordplay, and weirdness never fail to delight.
ReplyDeleteWow. I can't be sure that I totally [or correctly] understood exactly what each poem was getting at, but I know that I immediately cracked up when I got a glimpse of the first one and continued to crack up through the post. Also, I don't think I've ever had dragon fruit [or at least I don't have any recollection of trying any] but I've been wondering what it tastes like.
ReplyDeleteLike Angela, I'm not totally sure what it was that I just read, but I also laughed very hard at the first and third poems. Please have Firnadium write more often--he's a literary charmer!
