or how most great achievements
stem from accidental discoveries
two beauties are a joy for ever
ejaculated keats
lusting in ecstasy towards
well-breasted fanny brawne
no no my dearest john
sighed fanny
facing the quivering man
you’ve got it wrong -from where i am
she whispered – creeping
downwards with her hands
it’s better said
a thing of beauty is a joy for ever
the poet leapt with pleasure
at such passionate emendation
he gave in gracefully to what she craved
and in a flash endymion was conceived
and on the page
this brawny breast-fed line
has stood out boldly ever since
(Rg Gregory)
