Local Poetry: Ode To Kansas City



While we're enjoying more than a bit of inspiration from Sara Jean Underwood and her booty in yoga pants, here's a a bit of Kansas City Sunday artsy and a message about leaving Kansas City . . .

A Few Final Thoughts About Kansas City

I've sold my Hyde Park home this past week to return north to the Land of 10,000 Lakes. This ex-Chicagoan just wanted to offer a few parting poetic thoughts for your readers, apologies to Carl Sandburg...

Ode to Kansas City

Hog Cooker for the World
Emitter of Sewer Gas, Stacker of Vacant Schools
Player with Streetcars and the Nation's Truck Stop
Artsy, Violent, Impervious.
City of the Big Beer Belly.

  2. Don't forget: "Native nigger nastiness and negativity"...

    It all runs together but is far from poetic. Niggers are a disease, a fatal disease of Kansas City.
