KEATS IS DEAD SO FUCK ME FROM BEHIND Keats is dead, so fuck me from behind Slowly and with carnal purpose Some black midwinter afternoon While all the children are walking home from school Peel my stockings down with your teeth Coleridge is dead, and Auden too Of laughing in an overcoat Shelley died at sea and his heart wouldn't burn And Wordsworth...... They never found his body His widow mad with grief, hammering nails into an empty meadow Byron, Whitman, our dog crushed by a garage door Finger me slowly In the snowscape of your childhood Our dead floating just below the surface of the earth Bend me over like a substitute teacher & pump me full of shivering arrows O emotional vulnerability Bosnian folk-song, birds in the chimney Tell me what you love when you think I'm not listening Wallace Stevens's mother is calling him in for dinner But he's not coming, he's dead too, he died sixty years ago And nobody cared at his funeral Life is real And the days burn off like leopard print
