THIS IS NOT A POEM.....but it's about POETRY
I use poetry to explore myself… to put to words… those immense feelings that even without words can be so powerful….yet without words so fruitless…my poems are also a way of resolving conflict… within my own self… it’s a means of directing thoughts and clearing the mind… and a chapter to be added to life… to be studied. And understood…to examine and critically appraise… and yet a piece of art to be admired without judgment… in isolation…as a form of it’s own… with it’s conception… to birth…to it’s path… and into it’s aim and uptill….it’s reason to be has been fulfilled….thus lives a poem…to be understood in totality and yet be understood without bounds….thus lives a man…to be judged… and yet not to be judged…because both appreciation and condemnation require judgment…thus again a duality presents itself…to be resolved with passion from the heart and wisdom from the mind…
