    Poem Commentary

    Living well is the best revenge

    Oubliette

    I am not a prisoner bound
    I am the oubliette
    I cannot be found
    Nor can I forget

    The proof lies with me
    Of what they would hide
    What they wish not to be
    I mock and chide

    I vex them

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
