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

(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.
