A Stranger among Strangers
A stranger among strangers,
when the poet stands apart,
He poses a threat to the future.
You were here; I was there,
healing the world with our prayers and lyrics.
This is no mere nightmare.
the world that shuns a poet
sends them into oblivion—
just another forgotten poem.
Each new poet carries a powerful idea.
Poetry and artistry converge in every hidden word.
Faded poems curl like a half-moon,
fading, fading, and disappearing far too soon.
