America

This land of ours that the Pilgrims found

When they got lost and hit puget sound.

Maybe I'm wrong, but who cares.

They did land on what we call America.

 

Now and then it's good to refresh

Just where the hell we came from.

Maybe TimBuckToo or some island,

They still called it America.

 

Now this is no history lesson,

But the facts are true .

By some mistake the Pilgrims made,

Or was it a storm or two.

Love ya!

Robin Ouzman Hislop's poetry is certainly in dialogue with some of the key architects of the 'poetics of indeterminacy' – both the Modernist strands represented by the likes of Beckett and Stein, and the postmodernist strands represented, initially,
