Lasting emotions
are now a thing of the past. For just like oceans, where fishing nets may be cast, your catch might make you aghast. ······· ·······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.
