Insight
Each day I stare into the face of Death through memories I hardly wish to share of friend and foe exhaling their last breath into the face of Death. Each day I stare at places from the past where I survive while others filled pine boxes far too fast. It’s luck or fate that’s given me the drive where I survive. At places from the past old scars remain beneath a calm façade and you may search but it would be in vain for they are now well hidden by my God beneath a calm façade. Old scars remain ensconced within my mind. Though I am blind… though I am blind, ensconced within my mind. ·······  ·······When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
