Like a thousand pound suit that hides cheap underwear, <br />Like gloves that hide crooked hands, <br />Like soldiers that die of fright before they can shoot, <br /> Such is life. <br /> <br />Like a mute imprisoned in the Tower of Babel, <br />Like a fundamentalist trapped in logic and reason, <br />Like a pink poodle that thinks it's a wolf, <br /> Such is understanding.<br /><br />Stuart Miers<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-illusionist-9/
