Have You?

Have you
Ripped your
Heart apart?

No?

Have you
Rinsed
Your
Brains
Out?

No?

Have you
Bared your
Soul and
Body?

No?

Then
How
Can you
Write
Poetry?

Rip your
Heart
Apart
Launder
Out your
Brains
Strip out
Your
Soul
And body
And stand
Naked
Before
Me...

Then we'll
See
How well
You can
Write
Poetry!
