    come into this place
    you seem to think about it-
    too much gumbo
    too much deceit

    too little freedom
    too much latitude

    the sun can be the dry eye of hell
    and this vally of judgement the provence of marooned soldiers
    what about what you missed,
    the tired stageworn grin which veils an entropic grimace

    what fat purile pigheaded plague came to these shores so long ago
    and what had it fled

    now you see
    too much to swallow
    get choked up
    but soon....
    full throttle

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
