Rethink.: On Amy King's "A Solution to Science, In Part"

In "A Solution to Science, In Part," Amy King introduces formally what we want to explore. Here her narrator seems to critique the preoccupation with knowing all and consuming all that seems to define America today.

But this poem is in a collection of poems entitled "I'm the Man Who Loves You," a reference to a song of the indie-rock band Wilco. And it seems quite a lot of her work makes reference to objects that are already lyrically rich. So how did poets and songsters converge in terms of developing the same ideas?
