Walead Beshty created a series of modern art by sending breakable materials with FedEx. The damage was what made it visually compelling and the method was a philisophical statement.

"No object is truly static anyway, so this opened up broader questions I had about the tradition of appropriation, the way it froze cultural signifiers and reapplied them to other contexts, treated images as dead, static things…" - Walead Beshty

The cracks in the glass tell the story of it's travels. How do your scars tell your journey? Has life shipped you with better care than FedEx?

This contest is to find poems to feature on Late Night Poet's podbean radio show Part Sinner, Part Saint. If you consent to your work being shared send me (Aphasiana) a private message with the name of your poem and if you will be calling or if you'd like us to read it for you. If you have already filed your blanket with Fillmyeyes that isn't necessary. If you can send me a SoundCloud that would be wonderful.
