IN A STATION OF THE METRO
The apparition of these faces in the crowd:
Petals on a wet, black bough.
about the artist
John Kucera (aka Mister Siepkes) is a serial plagiarist best known for ripping off ‘In the Fifth Month of Lockdown I Plant Clematis’ by John Minczeski, originally published in One Art in 2022. He is practically unstoppable. Today’s featured plagiarism, ‘In a Station of the Metro’ was in fact originally written by Ezra Pound and published in 1913. It is one of the twentieth century’s most famous poems, hands down, so it is a little surprising we didn’t notice it was not an original work. Oh well!
