What We Must Do
I have heard it said
that poetry will outlast all the politicians
Well - this is one poet who follows the political scene
There have been politicians who wrote poems
Abraham Lincoln and Eugene McCarthy come to mind
I think poetry can change one's thinking
if you let it into your soul
The poetry in the Jewish prayer book
and the poetry of Bob Dylan
have influenced my thiniking
I will vote this September
Isn't that what they died for?
