James Edward Lee Sr. Poet Light Verse

Notes About The Poem

Sad I Am Sad-

I am sad
MAD
BAD

to forever silence
a sordid heart
put to rest, in the netherworld
this will be the last you hear from me,
I am sad

SWOLLEN
NOT CHOSEN

there is only agony
a flickering candle on the table, a maroon cheek
why did it come to this?
a life,
blighted
bad, mad,
sad AM I
I am sad
