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.

you didn’t lower the seat;
throne into bidet


and to continue the chain


exercise then swell
into a muscular man;
wait and you gain weight

Scraping off your shoe
with extra morae won’t do;
