The ninja girl made a poem by cutting up Trump's stimulus-check letter and rearranging the words and sentences. The result is excellent:

That is cut paper with a lot of edges on it. Would the ninja girl consider sending it to Rattle: Poets Respond?

[asakiyume]

I will ask her; thank you for the suggestion.

[sovay]

I will ask her; thank you for the suggestion.

It feels like exactly their thing.

[asakiyume]

*fingers crossed*

[sovay]

*fingers crossed*

Good luck!

The cut-up quality makes it look, appropriately, like a ransom note.

[asakiyume]

She did submit it! Since it was posted a few places (including Twitter), it may be disqualified, but better to let them decide that than to self-reject. Thank you so much for suggesting it!

Now that's fucking art! Sending it somewhere sounds great! (would that I knew where, anymore)

[asakiyume]

She hasn't messaged me back yet, but I did pass along sovay's recommendation!

(And I'll pass along your response too ^_^)

[ellenmillion]

That is amazing.

[sartorias]

What a terrific idea!

[osprey_archer]

That's brilliant! I hope that it finds a home where more people will see it.

[athenais]

WOW, that is great.

[asakiyume]

Yeah, it knocked my socks right off!

[genarti]

Oh WOW. That's fantastic.

[asakiyume]

It's so funny to me--but not surprising--that Trump's own words form this, anagram-like.

truth revealed.

[gwynnega]

This is marvelous. I hope she does send it to Poets Respond. It's perfect for them.

[asakiyume]

I talk to her most mornings, so I shall find out tomorrow!

[missroserose]

Man, if that doesn't completely sum up my entire reaction to this moment in our nation's history. She has a gift.

[missroserose]

(P.S. if it shows up anywhere shareable I will post that to my Tumblr in a heartbeat.)

[asakiyume]

She actually has it on Tumblr! Let me get the link: https://tinyantennas.tumblr.com/post/620490135524573184/experiencing-an-unprecedented-pandemic-made

[missroserose]

Excellent! I have reblogged and added tags. <3

[asakiyume]

**thumbs up**

[asakiyume]

She really does--she's done other poems like this, but this one, whoa.

[the_future_modernes]

EXCELLENT poem!

[asakiyume]

I'm glad you like it! I'm passing all the comments on to the creator.

[cmcmck]

How very futurist! :o)

[asakiyume]

Found poetry!

[mrissa]

Good good

[asakiyume]

I'm pointing her to this entry so she can see the comments :-)

[mallorys_camera]

That is so wonderful!!! 😀

[asakiyume]

The funny-sad thing is, the president would probably endorse it.

[mallorys_camera]

Probably! 😀

[queenoftheskies]

That sums it up pretty well.

[asakiyume]

It is, as we often say, Not Good.

[amaebi]

I love that.

[asakiyume]

Me too :-)

[aamcnamara]

Oh gosh. Yes. What a piece of art.

[asakiyume]

I'll pass on what you say <3

[wayfaringwordhack]

that sounds uncannily like Macron's speech to the French people. O.O

Take out the fluff and that is the exact message they are all getting at: Economic!

[asakiyume]

Yup! Economic economic economic....
