Mack Attack
Author’s Note: Did y’all check out our podcast episode where we interviewed Mack Devlin? We do a poem for our guests each week! Then brilliant Mack set it to music, which I’ve included here as well!
My apologies for the pain they cause, but here is Mack’s poem!
You can check out the podcast episode with our favorite Mack Devlin right here:
Mack Attack
It’s Mack Devlin, everyone
Come on, let’s have some fun
.
It’s the Mack Attack
Don’t Panic!
WHACK!!
.
Mack comes in
And the whole damn room spins
He’s got a lot to convey
But like in the best way
Let me tell you all about it,
We got a lot to survey:
.
Have you checked out his work?
No, you don’t gotta lurk,
One of the sharpest in the room
He’s got Imperfect Speech,
lives by a beach
And let him tell you all about “Party Pooper Syndrome”
.
Bitch, pay me!
SMACK!
Really, you gotta give that one a listen
Done with The In Between
Another fucking queen,
Pay them bitches,
I wanna see them glisten.
.
“Be cool, be calm, we’ll get to your loud ass”
Everyone has a voice
Isn’t that right, class?
A Mack quote, by the way
Covering his work,
on display!
.
There’s also “Notoriety,”
a prompt from imi
Obligations
Expectations
Associations.
We are both light and the dark, and
All of its manifestations.
.
Hard left to “Canned Beef.”
And “fart in a jar” critiques
It’s another that’s so much fun
But what is too low-key,
is when Mack does karaoke
Officially, this will never be overdone!
.
I want an encore
Elijah Westin , Fiona Bridges,
Please more!
Everyone! Check them out!
That’s an order, don’t doubt!
.
But Wow.
Is it already time for goodbyes?
How the time flies…
Everything dies…
.
Mack, it’s been so fun to give you our full attention
But quick, before you leave
“Unsoul’d” truly floored me
And that line, “She is both answer and question.”
.
Ah, you see what I did there?
The goodbye got longer
Not unlike Matthew Holvey’s hair
And Stefan Pasek will claim his poem is shorter
I’ll double-check, though, and give him a quarter
Mack, I hope it’s been fun
Whelp, Goodbye
We’ll do this again
Unless you try to outrun.

Thanks again, Mack! We love you!
From your friends, Stefan Pasek Matthew Holvey and Becky Hayward!
