Traumaturge

Those looking for political correctness
should stay far away from poets…don’t
make us angry…don’t drive us mad…

…or you’ll see poetic revolution, like
Alfred Jarry, mad in the streets of Paris
as Pere Ubu, like Kerouac, drunk on 
Steve Allen, reading from “On The Road”,
like Ginsburg chanting at W.F. Buckley 
on “Firing Line”, trying to levitate the 
Pentagon, like Woodstock, Monterrey 
Pop, Burning Man, poetic people army
molting artificial constraints on genuine
feelings, like it or not…if the poet’s
blood flows in the streets it means they
are giving it to the people the same as 
they give their words, being the same.

Poets are revolutionaries by nature. 
The poet inspires the battle, shows the 
reason, highlights the truth, therefore is 
dangerous to his/her mortal enemy; 
control. People  not led by L.E.D.s love 
poets who show them they can dance 
and sing in the face of their alleged 
captors…follow their flute to freedom!!
