“True Punk”

A Very Short Excerpt from “True Punk” by Chris Cipollini

NEW POETRY

It is not the mythology of trashcan flames,
or the dead boys canonized in gutter smoke.
It is not Sid and Nancy dissolving in neon tragedy,
or piss-marked bathrooms pretending to be altars.

True punk
is a pulse beneath all that —
older, quieter, far more dangerous.
