PETER COOK & KENNY
LERNER (FLYING WORDS PROJECT)
Soft Boiled Egg
[Note: This poem by Peter Cook (ASL) and Kenny Lerner (voice) was
based on a loose translation of Gregory Corso's "In Praise of Neanderthal
Man." The poets were inspired by the juxtaposing images in the poem. They
created this work for the Beat Studies Conference at Columbia College, October
2008.]
