These Modern Poets Poem by DM W

These Modern Poets

Rating: ★3.7


These modern poets often neglect beauty
And focus too much on pedantic matters,
Like identity politics. O give me
Dream - like metaphors and similes that shatter
The fragile glass of utter pretentiousness!
Give me fiery words to burn obscure nonsense.
Let's combat the secular with sacredness.
Let language soar like birds and forget the rest.
