Poetry and protest
"Laura Bush never deprived us
of the opportunity to sing for milk and brownies
on her turf and bow to the hem of power.
We chose not to.
Our dearest hope was that the Bushes
would cancel the event
for the simple reason
they are in violation of the spirit of our poetry;
in a word, they don't deserve American poetry."
