Ode #3 to Leatherface, America’s Dark Angel

Kenneth DiMaggio

Hillbilly revenge this
will be the last time
you laugh about trailer
parks

One critic said your story
“brings to focus a spirit of
negativity that seems to lie
not far below the surface
of modern collective
consciousness.”

As usual goddamn intellectuals
misreading poor white folk
again

When there was no more
work for a man’s tools for
his trade he had to find
another use for them or
a man who promised
to find things for them
to make

Hammers that once banged
in railroad spikes while
displacing buffalo herds

tools that will make one final
strike that will end a curse
