it could evolve even further into a video mash-up mixing poets spoken word w/ their cartoony icon.
what might work better, or at least easier to do for someone like me who's a nitwit w/ computers, would be a Situationist style détournement using various comicbook characters w/ the poets poem/words in the wordballoons, or if copyright violation is an issue, one could use the turn-of-century funnypaper characterslike the Yellow Kid & Happy Hooligan etc.

Guest = Sylvester
Koch = Porky Pig
etc.
HANNA-BARBERA (Black Mountain)
Olson = Yogi Bear
Creeley = George Jetson
Duncan = Space Ghost
Dorn = Scrappy-Doo
usw.
WALTER LANTZ (Beats)
Kerouac = Woody Woodpecker
Ginsberg = Andy Panda
Burroughs = Chilly Willy

yes, it could go on & on:
Ezra Pound = Gertie the Dinosaur

G. Stein = Popeye
Zukofsky = Betty Boop
Oppen = Koko the Clown
Sylvia Plath = Droopy
d.a. levy = Screwy Squirrel
Bukowski = the Tex Avery wolf
