Starting to Cave

I’m doing the best I  can, you know
But the stresses in me are starting to show.
I’ve held my tongue for as long as I could,
Now I feel the time to speak up as I should.
See me as others do, just passing by
Remember there’s more to me than what meets the eye.
Show me some interest, and inherent respect,
I have all this confidence, this jest and yet…
I still only longing to be.

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
