    Poem Commentary

    I was getting tired of the sad stuff.

    My Damn Butterfly

    I see it fluttering in my yard.
    It's my damn butterfly. 
    I chased it oh so very hard.
    It's my damn butterfly.
    It's helped it's self to all of my flowers.
     It's my damn butterfly.
    I stalked it oh so many hours.
     It's my damn butterfly.
     It's got me laughed at in my hood.
     It's my damn butterfly.
    The shotgun didn't do me any good.
     It's my damn butterfly.
    A net extention made me tall.
    It's my damn butterfly.
    Now he's stapled to my wall.
    My damn butterfly.

    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.
