A Rose is a Rose is...a Rosebud? Can You Tell John Ashbery from Aiden Shaw?
A Rose is a Rose is...a Rosebud? Can You Tell John Ashbery from Aiden Shaw?

The pen maybe mightier than the sword, but we wondered how it competes against a ten-inch dick. Or, for that matter, against a gelled Goth non-Asian non-bottom PR monkey. Below are six pieces of verse: two are by Andy Warhol-loving, Pulitzer-Prize winning, homosexual poet laureate John Ashbery, two by crystal-meth-recovering, punk-singing horse-hung Aiden Shaw (pictured) and two by cocktail-loving, Tori-Amos singing, non-racehorshe Jason Curious.

Can you tell which verse is top/vers?


(scroll down for answers)





ONE
My heart muscle is hard
Push your hand inside my arse
Take hold of my heart
Squeeze it between your fingers
Pull it from within
Out into this world
And beat it


TWO
Perhaps an angel looks like everything
We have forgotten, I mean forgotten
Things that don't seem familiar when
We meet them again, lost beyond telling,
Which were ours once.

 
THREE
You think you're being kissed
But I'm talking to you
My lips are mouthing words
Not slipping, meaning nothing
In truth I want you to hear
Stuff that isn't spoken


FOUR
These shackles, they remain to remind.
But with you on your cloud and me on mine.

 
FIVE
Once, on Mannahatta's bleak shore,
I trolled for spunkfish, but caught naught, nothing save
a rubber plunger or two. It was awful,
at that time. Now everything is cheerful.
I wonder, does it make a difference?
 

SIX
All his eggs in his inches.
Needs a map to get him there,
sniffing out that one sure thing.
