    dream demolition

    my heart’s crumbling infrastructure


    rots like a decrepit old house


    once full


    of love


    hope


    aspiration


    pipe dreams exposed


    blown apart by volatile reality


    only the sulfurous stench of your indifference remains

    "only the sulfurous stench of your indifference remains" —— a unique poetic line.

    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
