    Bart Edelman's poem "They Shot Wook Kim" describes the real-life murder of a Korean immigrant as he worked the night shift at a gas station. The poem begins with the words one through eight scattered randomly across the page, representing the eight times Wook Kim was shot and conveying the senseless, violent nature of his death. The poet uses structure and irony to portray modern America and its "complex cultures thrown into chaos," a world which Wook Kim did not really understand, and which he will never have the chance to fully learn about.
