Why did the one given the greatest gift by the Lord
Shake a spear?*

Ode to the Latinates

Mica mica
Parva stella
Custodes cognoscent
Sis tam bella*

On Shakespeare

Literary debate on Shakespeare's sexuality
Has endured centuries and may still more
But I know a Queen once received him
With "Henry - The Avon Lady's at the door!"
