Promotion For No Product Poem by Denis Mair

Promotion For No Product

Rating: 5.0


Out of the graveyard of the typographic imagination

designs turn whimsical, with no designs on our pocketbooks

promotions done with panache for no product

the receding rhapsody of graphic showmanship was biding its time

ready to flare again at any moment...

and it does so without a whiff of nostalgia

sprung from the cage of utility

to strut its neo-constructivist vigor

freshly outdated to rescue the hopelessly modish

COMMENTS OF THE POEM
Terence Craddock 22 April 2023

this is an exceptionally well written and intriguingly insightful poem, touching on the edges of thought, exploring issues of who sparks imagination, who does the work, who gets the credit, who is discarded tossed away
