    Life Lessens

     One lesson--
    Already you're a pro.
    Expression
    Through riddle, rhythm, rhyme
    Won't lessen
    The pain it takes to grow.
    Depression
    Can sometimes make you climb.

    A part of
    Our lives in this bastille,
    Oppression
    Is sad reality.
    The art of
    Expressing how you feel . . .
    Confession
    Is offered guiltily:

    I'm sorry,
    For both of us. You see,
    Discretion
    Is not an easy task.
    Sob story
    Has been my legacy.
    Obsession--
    A burning powder flask.

    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
