What have I gotten myself into? <br />A commune of faggots, dilettantes, <br />Men In mistaken milieus <br />Ladies feigning radical chic <br />In pretense of art and sensitivity <br />Of the unwanted and the ignored <br />Spewing vulgarity and unabashed behavior <br />Hiding behind the absurd and the ambiguous <br />As if fearful of being stripped naked <br />All in the name of mythical temperaments <br />And consciously fabricated personae <br /> <br />Poets with fractured verse gather <br />As in symbiotic safety <br />Unmindful of grammar formality <br />Spewing anarchic syntax <br />Senseless verbiage strung indiscrete <br />Metaphors unmatched and asinine <br />Words spelled as heard <br />Free verse shamelessly abused <br />Mouthing poetic license as an excuse to <br />Inflict mayhem on literariness <br />Drawing attention as avant-garde <br />The charade lives on, robust and raucous <br />In the circle of fools<br /><br />Eddie Roa<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/poesy-defiled/
