Help! I'm blanking on a poem and it's driving me nuts.

We've just had a poem on the use of the word "f**k" and another on "f**k me." I was immediately reminded of the poem that starts most every line with "F**k you...", a fairly well-known poet and a nice piece of work but now I can't remember who wrote it or what the title is and it is going to bug me like a song stuck in my head until I can remember.

I don't think I've read it, but could it be Alan Ginsberg? It, uh, sort of sounds like him.

Google also turned up this (http://www.slope.org/archive/issue17/FU_gerstler.html), which could be it? Dunno.
