OUR LITERARY HISTORY
scruffy rebel poets
Knights of the Realm
sometimes those
strangest of
hybrids that fall
into both categories
and there
in the schools
and universities
an industry at work
creating a mosaic
building a pantheon
that Shakespeare, whoever
he is, whomsoever
he was
can float high above everything
in great
volumes of cloud
Hamlet teasing the Danish
first minister to fix
upon absolutes where
all is
shifting significance
poems 2 die for
