Young Stud

BEOWULF YOUNG STUD 



“As for the poem, one dragon,
however hot, does not make
a summer”—J. R. R. Tolkien, 
“Beowulf: The Monsters and 
the Critics,” Proceedings of 
the British Academy (1936)
_____________

Fairy godmothers flit around—
him, entranced by his rather
butchy Beowulfian bestiality

Who can blame them—
Departmental queen bees
ensconced in Historia closetry
____________

Miss Mythologia with her—
Sister Philologia platitudes,
Archeologia & Laographia

Such excellent ladies—
surely they know seminal
Freshman sexuality nicely?
