Notes About The Poem

War of all wars, with no words of compassion, only gibberish, mis messages~when will we come to our sensesPoet  

Watch Them Fall

                                  
* Star weary sorrow tears Zillions flicker dimming lightened gifts bloodblack diamonds spinning Flames flash skies into near night Cosmic scales—fallen world's despairs Dark-Star reaps ringed scarlet horizons shooting star dissipating downward Jaded stones form constellations best poet’s mouth is silenced Ashy smoke rising scents Black gold dominance Savoir-faire sage from its dust evokes Zen _/\_

Fantastic imagery and amazing how the lines wide. Out perfectly and then narrow for diamond shape.

Like our leader who spews contamination. Provocative thoughts and telling imagery, Anaya.

"I think it better that in times like these A poet's mouth be silent, for in truth" Yeats also warned that what poetry cannot do: set a statesman right. The poem’s refusal is grounded in a clear limit: We have no gift to set a statesman right. Ty, Robert!

Ty, Jay! I'll settle for it, as it was impossible to shape a perfect diamond. :)
