"Persecution"
# 9 December 2 2003
Persecution, as bad as it sounds
Prepares one to be heaven bound!
Proves our worth, for HIS Plan,
Perseverance should be our Stand.
Perhaps the trials in one’s life,
Prospers one, through grief and strife?
Placing those who feel its pain, To
Pose thoughts, We should refrain? Thus
Purifying the soul, for the wedding feast
Providence by GOD! takes away our grief!
John Bird
Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.
Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
