Long, long ago, while humankind was still emerging from the Dark Ages, this appeared in the Denver Quarterly.
Homer was not Homer,
but a Homer whom
we, by mis-misnomer,
call a name the other's.
Histories assume
economy of mothers.
Fungible poets sink
into LaBrean bogs.
Editors may think
editees alive;
cockroaches and frogs
generically survive.
