Cinque Poesie

D. H. Lawrence
Held Rome in abhorrence.
Nymphs and shaggy-legged fawns
Were his turn-ons.

Michelangelo:
Whoa.
His statue of Moses—
Such fingers! Such toeses!

Dante Alighieri
Was very very very
Prim.
So fuck ’im.

Gian Lorenzo Bernini
Was known as a meanie.
Others called him a coot.
He ate little but fruit.

 

Coriolanus
Was a no-good, filthy—Restrain us.
There’s a price to pay
For lèse-majesté.
