Four Out of Nine Muses Recommend Poetry
Four out of nine Muses recommend
poetry
More doctors recommended
Camel cigarettes
But we are not speaking of
burning poetry
Except by tyrants, who are
frightened of words
Kalliope, Cleo, Erato, and
Euterpe
Have split the poetry racket
among themselves
The other Muses have
business of their own
Worthy enough in their own
arts, we’re sure
But oh, our four Muses,
our Muses four -
We sing for you along your
Ionian shore
