Jonathon Swift

…The mysterious life of Jonathon Swift
With satire granting the ‘dirt poor’ a lift—
His cessation left loot to house the insane
His mind was perhaps, perhaps was the same?

Greetings, and thank you for welcoming me to Poetry Soup! I'm not yet familiar with the contest aspects of the website, so it may take some time to figure out. I have been looking for a community of poets to share and collaborate with, and it looks like this may well be a poet's paradise—thank you again Linda!
