WHY DOES A POEM /NOT WANT TO BEGIN <br /> <br />Why does a poem <br />Not want to begin? <br />Why does Silence say <br />It should be all and all? <br /> <br />Why against this <br />Must ‘Will’ and ‘Ambition’ come? <br />And force lines <br />As these lines forced now? <br /> <br />Because I am a lonely man <br />Who has nothing to do with himself? <br /> <br />But write poems <br />Which he dreams <br />Someone someday <br />Will read.<br /><br />Shalom Freedman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/why-does-a-poem-not-want-to-begin/
