Hey guys, let's find the worst state poet laureate.

My submission is Cyntia Huntington from New Hampshire, good luck finding a worse one

Excerpt from "meds":
3.

I must elude pain
float past clarity
pain in the brain
slammed down like a housefly.

It’s a big dodge.

Fly on a stovetop
sizzle and ash pop.

This is illusion,
mental confusion

born in the synapse.
What can be undone
down to the last gasp.
It’s a hodgepodge.

If you kill pain
you will become pain;

pain does not feel pain,
no nerves in the brain.

It’s a mind-fuck.

It’s just your bad luck.
