    The following takes place between.....

     Poor Jack,
    Running Running Running with time against him,
    Never having time, to eat, to drink to sleep.

    Poor Jack,
    Time has not been kind. Beaten down and scarred,
    His family has fallen beneath him. Never will he know true peace.

    Poor Jack,
    His head cannot contain his grief. If only he had 1 more day.

    Poor Jack.

    Ah yes... imagine if he had that extra day... he could turn the tide of war, solve world hunger, and possibly bring peace to the middle east. Perhaps his daughter's stem cells will give him that next day!

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
