If a woman wants to be a poet, she should run backwards circling the volcano; she should feel for the movement along her faults; she should not get a Ph.D. in seismography.
If a woman wants to be a poet, she should not sleep with uncircumcised manuscripts; she should not write odes to her abortions; she should not make stew of old unicorn meal.
If a woman wants to be a poet, she should read French cookbooks and Chinese vegetables; she should suck on French poets to freshen her breath; she should not m**turbate in writing seminars. If a woman wants to be a poet, she should peel back the hair from her eyeballs; she should listen to the breathing of sleeping men; she should listen to the spaces between that breathing.
If a woman wants to be a poet, she should not write her poems with a dildo; she should pray that her daughters are women; she should forgive her father for his bravest sperm.

Steve, If a woman doesn't want to be a poet,
she can be anything she wants to be ;)
