Surely the point of contributing to a collaborative poem is to enable the
contributions of others? Helping other workers to build something you
couldn't/wouldn't build on your own? Indeed, exactly to keep it going? Oh.
No. Of course. Sorry, I was in the wrong mind. I was interpreting
collaborative as 'working together', but you mean collaborative in the
sense of 'competitive'. Beating the opposition. Market forces.
Manufacturers working together competitively in the same industry.

"One of the most stunning performances the Festival has ever presented. A
stark, stripped-down, minimalist workŠ McDermott's performance was utterly
committed and terrifying. From the hoots and hollers and long applause that
followed, the work Š was clearly the favourite."
Amy Bracken Sparks in "The Plain Dealer", May 22 1998
