Protective Poetry 101
By 1stpoet
Protective Poetry It was Protective Poetry 101 we were placed in condoms not so in terms of keeping things out but to keep us in We were thinkers, dreamers, lovers in a world of regiment, reality, and hate Chained to walls within our minds Light was kept from us We could change the worlds with words if we could break free of the prophylactic thinking and inseminate our minds with fertile desires thus bearing children from our pens White-haired, white suited professors tried to abort our “misconceptions” and keep us dependent on the sterile ejaculation of education they forced us to open ourselves up to Bottle-fed bland pabulum labeled “Creative Writing” Yet the ingredients never included the Poet their creativity, desire, or their Muse.
