JORIE GRAHAM'S VENTURE

Under a stiff vacancy
at Radcliffe college
imparting a new feminist
trend of knowledge
Jorie Graham has arrived
as men are back inside
the dorms of Harvard Yard
in the halls
playing hockey
with no stick or balls
for a new template
and norm has been cast
at last women are free
with their own hymns
for their own natures rule
at the Divinity School,
to teach their own philosophy
not Santayana or Nirvana
but Susan B. Anthony
Sontag,Vendler, Steinem
and of course goddess Gaia,
yet Jorie Graham will inspire
a generation of friends & fans
without Sylvia Plath's mayhem.
