She will undoubtedly say "Don't be silly!" but I will still offer. And if you want to read my poetry and think high school kiddies everywhere should be exposed to the greater and edgier contents of my mind - I was going to say "soul" but I think any poet who talks about their soul should be taken out and shot - maybe you should tell her how much you love my work.
And if you don't know my work, here's one of my sonnets as a sample:
MY SONG OF SOCIAL JUSTICE by Denise Murphy c 2004 Equality et al does have its place, The Rights of Man, oh, and of woman too Undoubtedly humankind's great saving grace To believe in this and with grateful due For equality in all things is our right To live by our choices, written in to law To pursue our happiness, our great delight, Unruled by tyrants, talons, boots and claw. To express our thoughts, our dreams and our love, To speak, to write, to think, all untravailed Untrammeled by strictures, dictates from above And all less than this suitably reviled. But my greater love, yeah, I must confess Is to own a bunch of slaves to clean my mess.

You're an unreconstructed anti anti ideologue.

Guess this means you don't want to publish it!
Now I'm sad!
However I'm even sadder that I actually understand your review.
