Start with an obscure form of poetry,
a female role in Shakespeare comedy
to find yourself in gender politics.
With changeling, colonial politics
mask anonymity in poetry
add subjugation into comedy
To mix sixteenth century comedy
with twenty-first century politics
without doubt produces bad poetry
Poetry comedy and politics
