    Staring like a deer caught in the headlight.

    Staring like a deer caught in the headlight,
    You were taken from un, on eof the few;
    Run, run away from the hideous light.

    Though sky's cryed and the dark roared, you were right;
    And now your eyes burn like the moon anew;
    Staring like a deer caught in the headlight.

    Hood up, hair down, your eyes gone from the sight,
    Your fear must have shown in the vivid street hew;
    Run, run away from the hideous light.

    And you who lived life to its fullest hight,
    Ran down you number before it was due;
    Staring like a deer caught in the headlight.

    Dead men who see you there let there be light,
    To show your mind in flight seeing the blue;
    Run, run away from the hideous light.

    Aand you my friend here no longer fly kites;
    Look down on un and laugh at our pitty pews;
    Staring like a deer caught in the headlight.
    Run, run away from the hideous light.

    i enjoyed that poem very much it made me wonder about life in general

    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.
