Plot: Since the hit-and-run murder of his wife five years ago, Rennie Cray has crisscrossed America in his souped-up, stripped-down ‘68 Plymouth Barracuda, pursuing her killer. The man he seeks in a high-speed, high-stakes game of cat-and-mouse is James Fargo, a merciless, wheelchair-bound pyschopath. Through a series of mechanical innovations, Fargo has turned his rampaging ‘72 Cadillac Eldorado into a monstrous extension of his own twisted body and mind. Now, their deadly battle of wits and wills is about to move into overdrive. And caught in their headlights is a tormented beauty who unwittingly holds the key to their ultimate showdown.

Funny american poets?
I am doing a high school assignment were i have to find three poets and read 5 poems for each poet i pick. i love poems with humor… i also really like the Poem highwayman by Alfred Noyes. The requirement is that the poet has to be American. I have been looking by myself for poets that i would be interested in reading, but have found none… any suggestions?


How about Ogden Nash? I think you would like Robert Frost, though his aren’t funny. Try The Pasture, The Road Not Taken, Stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Evening, The Secret Sits, and the Fog.

Dorothy Parker, and Judith Viorst are two good female poets that are funny. Viorst mostly writes for children, but they are really funny.

I always thought William Carlos Williams was kind of funny. He is famous for "The Red Wheelbarrow," or "This is Just to Say."

And one of my favorite poets is Edgar Guest. :)

Oh, and if you like The Highwayman, you should try The Lady of Shallot, by Lord Alfred Tennyson (who is English, but it’s still a good read).
