All I Want is to Write The Poem

All I want is to write the poem 

that makes the mute girl sing.

All I want is to write the poem

that frightens cherub faced girls.

All I want is to write the poem

that gets me excommunicated by the pope 

and I ain’t even catholic. 

All I want is to write the poem 

that is denounced by the local school board

As it incites the angels of anarchy

to burn down the ivory towers, 

while the children of Eris 

dance naked around the pyre.

All I want is to write the poem

that brings your period on 

a week and a half early.

All I want

is to write

the poem.
