many ( if not most )

Of our poems are written to

A ...... You

More properly spelled

Y
O
U

rising up as the ******* symbol that it is

/::/

By addressing the poem to this

Y
O
U

The real audience ( the actual readers )

Are effectively erased from the writer's consideration

And all responsibility for the poem is likewise erased

•

Y
O
U

as the subject matter

Totally de-personalizes the person who is the subject

Of the poem and renders him as a mere object
( phallus )

In the writer's mind

•

This enables the writer to invent any SELF desired

The usual SELF  is of

THE VICTIM

category

//

This VICTIM status

Has been raised to a religious level

As

THE BROKEN PEOPLE

have replaced

THE CHOSEN PEOPLE

as the god given identification for mankind

•

With its ritual mutilations

( real or fake )

Commanding its ritual amens

And commiserations

///

be wary

DEAR YOUNG ONES

and try to write real poetry

For it can heal both you and the world
