others may have wine, i have poetry

We don't read and write poetry because it's cute.

We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race.

And the human race is filled with passion.

And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life.

But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.

out of the blue

there is thunder in the air
wonder who is having a row up there?
wonder what the row's about?
that is making someone scream and shout?
is it about the presedential debate?
is someone fighting over the earth's fate?

there is intense lightning in the air
wonder who is flashing such anger up there?
did a couple up there just break up?
are friends finding it hard to make up?

there is such heavy rain
wonder who is crying out in vain
who is feeling such pain?
wonder who is going so insane?
