empty rooms

...empty picture frames fill my room - like reflections from a mirror - once you turn and walk away.

 

 

the light of a candle - the instant it's blown out - the sound of melting wax, now frozen - left in darkness, awaits the match

 

the forgotten ones - sit on cold hardwood floors - cutting pictures from People magazine - with dull shinny scissors - to fill empty frames.

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
