    Nay

    Nay

    I freeze for you
    stock still my muscles are iron and cold
    I melt for you
    as snow before the rising dawn
    I burn for you
    hot embers boiling currents
    and yet
    somehow yet
    you make my body whole
    only with you
    do the limbs feel their fulness flexing
    en-heartened to move against this steely cage
    and finally
    my ruin will be smote
    upon the slopes of your decry
    'nay'

    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
