    LEFT TO SURVIVE
    WE ALL HAVE DEMONS IN OUR MIDST. SOME ARE OUR OWN,
    SOME BELONG TO OTHERS- YET WE CARRY THEM AS OUR OWN.
    THE WEIGHT OF THESE DEMONS ARE HEAVY & PREVENT SLEEP. YEA THOUGH I RUN THROUGH THE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF LIFE, I WILL FEAR NO EVIL- FOR I WAS BORN INTO IT. THY ROD & THY STAFF HAVE PENETRATED ME FOR YEARS & THE SCREAMS THAT WAKE ME IN THE NIGHT ARE MY OWN. I HAVE BEEN PLUNGED INTO THE UNKNOWN - YET ENDLESS TORTURE OF BEING A SURVIVOR. WHY DO YOU NOW DISTURB MY SLEEP? WILL I FIND NO PEACE IN MY TIME? AS YET MY
    RESTLESS MIND IS LEFT TO WONDER ALL OF THESE MANY
    YEARS & IT DOES WEIGH HEAVY ON MY SOUL.........WILL IT EVER END?

    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
