Courage in Poetry

Courage she says? Courage to
Speak plainly concerning
Women’s sexual exploits and
Her personal power gained by
Owning her victories over
Male chauvinism? Has she
Done this in her poetry?
Have you DD?

What about having enough courage
To employ integrity in your
Everyday life and relationships?
True integrity that makes people
Take notice. Have so much integrity
That it makes people uncomfortable
Because of their own guilted
Conscious. Put that in your poetry
Submissions and see if you can
Get in print! Or will using the
“F” word be so avant-garde that
The young grad who just took
Over editorial can only
Relate to obscenity?
