Enchanted by this little mystery over at John Latta’s Isola di Rifiuti, I set myself to poking around Google Books, which coughed up this page and its delightful list of the “key words and phrases” in Kenneth Koch’s Selected Poems 1950-1982:

sleeping with women, circus girls, Thesmophoriazusae, Poros, asleep and sleeping, Frank O’Hara, O’Ryan, Saint Ursula, Fernand Leger, Jane Freilicher, Art of Love, John Ashbery, William Carlos Williams, Ezra Pound, limburger cheese, Amba, poetry, brassiere, Larry Rivers, Strangler

No, kids, it’s not flarf; it’s just a little fun.
