Poetry and God
Let us take off the veneer
the comforting illusion and cosy half-truth
blow out the candles
make a wish
say a prayer prepare for letdown
the purpose of poetry if rightly said
and of satire certainly said
is to strip off the veneer of comforting illusion and cosy half-truth
and our job as I see it is
up to you and me
