Ted's Valentine

That bear again
a matador a rocker
whose bull is the poem
and the bullshit thereto
appended by dawn
by death all that
upper body and beard
hiding a shy altar boy
sipping wine after mass
uppers for consecration
asking mockingbird when did
beauty become the enemy
the religion of the new
shock-deaden all
sense for what's true?
