Poetry

Poetry …

Should be immoral
Rude and offensive
Impolite for the joy of it
Saying the wrong thing
Unfit for children
And unworthy of grownups
Be on the side of the angels
Fallen from heaven
Poetry should be
Scandalous and innocent
Naive and streetwise
Beyond its years
Ridiculous and awesome
Obscene and tender
Be outrageous
Strange and beautiful
