Take a cup of Dickinson, add a bit of Poe; a pinch of Rod McKuen, not too much you know... A teaspoon full of Kipling, a tablespoon of Frost; stir it in the *** so not much is lost. A dash of Robert Service, a dash of my friend, Shelly; a little Tennyson, is good for one man's belly. For sadness, add Millay, for humor, Ogden Nash; for adventure, Masefield, for D. Parker, something brash. A recipe for poet's stew, just simmer for an hour; and relish the aroma, of poetry and power.

A recipe for poets.
Take a cup of Dickinson, add a bit of Poe; a pinch of Rod McKuen, not too much you know... A teaspoon full of Kipling, a tablespoon of Frost; stir it in the *** so not much is lost. A dash of Robert Service, a dash of my friend, Shelly; a little Tennyson, is good for one man's belly. For sadness, add Millay, for humor, Ogden Nash; for adventure, Masefield, for D. Parker, something brash. A recipe for poet's stew, just simmer for an hour; and relish the aroma, of poetry and power.
