-- I, too, Sing L.H.
I am not the Poet this isn't a Line
I am not the Poet this isn't a Line
What it is is a Mystery to Me
Always has been--Quit buzzing-- Oh poetry!
You who have wept with the Greatest and Climbed
Up to Mt Olympus or Macondo
What is the difference, mi paisano?
While you fear the Sublime shadow's Curtain
I stand for what mattered to Heroines
Fearful Courage! and Defeated Triumph!
The losses weren't worth their Sacrifice
And lost to those Reason the Albatross
Dear Poem, I curse you with Life as I am
Don't stand there pretending not to Notice
I to Sing America Sing Sorrows
