    No Kingdom Come


    The knife was deep,
    blood continues to seep,
    as he thought about how life
    comes and goes,
    when you die, only God knows,
    death remained a difficult concept to grasp,
    as he gasped and he gasped,
    he regained a seated position,
    as he waited for the transition,
    from life to death,
    as he felt his final breath,
    he expected Angels and Demons,
    one with bloodthirsty anticipation,
    and the other with forgiveness without contemplation,
    but there was none,
    life was over just like that,
    and there was no Kingdom Come...

    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
