Less of a Man
The tears on my face
and my empty hand
have nothing to do
nothing to lose
people hate the cheater
struck lightning into my eyes
less of a love
a war in disguise
who you are is less than you know
the tears on my face
have nothing to do
with the fear you gave me
the fear of your cheating
and lightning strikes as you move
don't love me,
just wonder
this is less than you know
don't trust you
less of a man
I want to forget
all that you know

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
