9/18/2006 01:48:00 PM - Now, Let Me Explain...

...As you first read the upcoming poem, it may seem weak, needing adjustment, or perhaps, ugly sounding. But, in my opinion, humble though firmly expressed, it is very good. I understand that the rhythm is halting often, and the fluidity is murky. But, dear ones, as is the idea. Read it once, twice, even thrice. Understand the idea, see how the hesitation in reading it applies. Tell me if I'm still sane.

Once and Now.

Once, when love was not forbidden,
People fell in love publicly,
And never was pure love hidden.

They spoke with signs and whispered low,
And watched the sunrise silently;
They held hands, walking in the snow.

Now, love is sadly long, long gone.
With it, lovers, disastrously,
Now abandoned, remain alone.



That's all.
Adonis
