ENDS ‘N’ ODDS
Mexperimental is the postcolonial version of Spainstream. I want to write the postpunk version of —?—.

This morning I was cleaning the house, listening to Singin’ in the Rain, which I bought my last day in Paris.
“When I hear that happy beat
Feel like dancing down the street…”
And as long as I don’t listen too carefully to the news, it’s all good.

Can anyone guess who wrote this poem? I’ll give you a hint. It was published in 1922:
FLITTING WAVEThree words I combine
Mix them like a wine
For the sea to drink:
Happy…merry…gleeful…
These are three words
That sparkle!
The wind sings with foam.
I, with my thoughts.
Another hint: this poet is Julia’s poetic ancestress.

Rachel Levitsky is just plain wrong when she says that Paris is sad.
