POETICS OF WHITMAN AND POE

 

 

Poetics

               of Whitman

                          and Poe

 

         interspersed

              with contradiction

 

          crisscross

                  this crisis

                      with

               a brouhaha

 

                   of illustrious

                               warriors

                 donnybrooking

            over the rights

 

                      of mortal men

 

to decide

their own fates

 

              and formulate

           their own poetics
