May all goes well for you.

I like this spam email/concrete poetry, written by “catlady01″.  I especially like the end:

apple iphone 3gs 16gb from this website
one weeks ago, today I’ve got it .  Amazing,beyond my imagination, it’s genuine and as good as expected,but much cheaper. I’m pleased to share this good news  with you! May all goes

Diter Roth – “Some Variations”

"Some Variations on 44" by Dieter Roth

In the book “An Anthology of Concrete Poetry” mentioned in the previous post, I found this wonderful little piece by Diter Roth. The title is actually “Some variations on 44” but I can’t figure out how to get that to show up in the title.

I’ve uploaded a full-size scan – click on the image to view it.  Detail below:
