NO PLACE FOR POETS


          
         
There is no place for the poet...

We are all lost
In our last stages,
without having time
To leave a trail
Any ,
of our last memories... !

We are the new found
After more than a hundred years.
hence we belatedly conclude:

  a poet has no place
within the depths
of eternal night,
when he dissolves
without being wanted...

There is a strange darkness
where new words
   running around his head
   they give him a tasteless kiss...

Then the poets fly
  away sans any noise,

    run away from this place they know
never belonged...

Hello Alakas, Some poets do not belong? Where are they that they do not belong? Just maybe the poet that is trying to create a poem is having writers block. Enjoy your day my friend. /Darlene/

DEAR Darlenein the field of poetry there is a reality which doesn't matter much with the real world... almost had is metaphorical therefore... the poet's world is imaginary.. so understand everything as imagination, metaphor..
