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.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy

Continuing the string:

sweet sweet

shroud facts
with just a few
evocative or extreme
euphemisms which will confuse
that fact
