dear friend <br /> i write this with bitterness <br />this poem, <br /> this un-poem, <br />this anti-poem which is bitter <br /> <br />i do not know if you are bitter too, <br /> because if you are <br />perhaps you <br />can easily understand how is it to be unpoetic <br />because you are bitter <br />because i have <br /> the impression that to be poetic <br />it must be something <br />that makes us feel beautiful <br />inside out <br />and which also <br />spreads beauty <br />all around the world, <br />and people will be happy <br /> and know that something <br />poetic is always the one <br />that creates order, <br /> system, <br /> nice feelings, <br />nothing of that bitter sort, <br /> that depressing effect, <br />that prompts a suicide <br />somewhere along the straight line <br />of life, <br /> <br />i have nothing bad <br />for all my intentions, <br />i am a bitter man, <br /> and i am writing about bitterness, <br />and you surely will <br /> not like it, <br />because you are <br />a happy man, <br />in blissful state, <br />as you wish to convey it <br />in your pictures at <br />facebook, <br />and the rest of the write-ups <br />that you have posted <br /> so far. <br /> <br />this poem is <br /> like a volcano <br /> that soon will erupt <br />i hope there will <br />be no casualties <br /> <br />it has to. <br />because it is needed. <br />because it is. <br /> <br />so, <br />i think, <br /> it is time for you to <br /> run away and avoid me, <br /> and forget ab <br />out me, <br /> <br />as of this moment, <br />you should have already <br /> stopped <br />reading. <br /> <br /> <br />i guess, <br /> you are interested <br />in bitterness, <br />it is sweet to know that <br />... <br />are you <br />bitter too?<br /><br />RIC S.
