(1957)

What do you think this poem is about?

Uniquely You

In poetry, you render from the gut -
Expository slut, the aim:
Cathartic legs apart,
Inviting all to penetrate
Your world;
A whore of individuality -
Your literary art ejaculating
From the riven heart -
Pumping, thumping, crying out
Upon the sleeve -
For that is what you do -
Uniquely -
Now believe.
