A brief Introduction before poetry

hi

:( for the electric writers of today!
digital notes on laptops and blackberries -
Lament the quill in tinctured tears!
ashes and sackcloth for parchment and foolscap -
ars poetica is dead!
A threnody for the poets crouched around computers in coffee shops!
Pipe your eyes for the hawkish few sleeping beneath a conservative kerchief!
Weep! Weep for poets past who lived the art
drinking wine and drenched in cunt
