    Poem Commentary

    There is something wrong with my writing. Lately, I've been despising it.

    the deadly kiss from a cruel sun
    The deadly kiss from a cruel sun
    punishes us, in a downward spiral
    into the cold breath of a loaded gun
    like we're criminals waiting for a trial

    Meaningless and depthless, I keep going on
    making up excuses for failures, losses and gains
    wasting words that are not even my own
    (silence will hopefully be all that remains)

    Things I used to dream about seem literal now
    as voices long forgotten seem to call my name
    I hope we never try to break this vow -
    we might as well believe it is all just a game

    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
