    Poem Commentary

    A poem written ten years ago for a friend that was murdered.

    Let him rest in peace

    Sadly he died in the youth of his life-
    Twelve days just after he turned 18-
    such compassion for life-
    Whom he had trusted, turned to be fatal-
    A " friend" he had met in a time of need-
    An "escape" for him in his time of tears-
    In his innocent eyes he would have never seen-

    His new "friend" was the road to his grave-
    Blind everyone, we know see-
    Late one evening in the summers heat-
    she had guided him to the rivers edge-
    To "romance" his sweet heart-

    Than with a switch at hand-
    She cold heartily took his last breath-
    MURDER-
    She murdered an innocent man-

    Reasoning, we still have none-
    Its been six years since he has been killed-
    Let him rest in peace now-
    Let his soul be-
    Come forth you murder-
    God will One day judge you-
    Cops never got Steve's justice-
    I know one day our maker will-

    I love the dark side, a very sad write but so well written. 10 from me.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
