Arthur Rimbaud
by Rajean Gallagher


If Arthur Rimbaud, the poet, returned,
my smart-assed muse/master would shake and burn-
swaying his hips at every right turn...
If Arthur Rimbaud, the poet, returned.

If Arthur Rimbaud, the poet, could arise
he'd sarcastically repent with a ragged little sigh-
shed only a tear, with not a drop in his eye--
If Arthur Rimbaud, the poet, could arise.

If Arthur Rimbaud, the poet were here,
he'd whisper sweet naughties, clever and queer-
liquor emboldened profanities, well....well,  I'd just love to hear--!
If Arthur Rimbaud, the poet, were here.
