Anyone who likes to eat SPAM luncheon meat, sing about SPAM with Monty Python, or simply relish the poetry that is SPAM's very existence will love sinking his or her teeth into SPAM-ku.
Amazon.com Review
"I hear the Spam ball. / It bounces--porqua, porqua. / A haiku of spring." John Nagamichi Cho--self-described Spam Haiku Archive Master, or "S.H.A.M." for short, and researcher at MIT--has compiled a treasure-trove of uniquely delicious poetry from more than 40 porkphile poets. With piggy prose on everything from Americana: "perfection uncanned / like a beautiful redhead / fresh from her trailer" to philosophy: "I'm pink, therefore I'm Spam," Spam-ku: Tranquil Reflections on Luncheon Loaf is a perfect accouterment for those with a taste for the quirky. --Rebekah Warren |
