This Love is in Prison
awake I am emotional
take it easy not personal
this love is now in prison
I fail to understand the reason
doing what I wanted, I tried
I failed, I lost hope, I cried
things seemed to be the best
but later turned to be the worst
the heart turns to be dry
love seems to be a lie
in prison I cannot escape
like a little girl during rape.
Drencho POET Loads
Wallace Stevens said:
"Poetry is not personal."
He tried never to divulge
anything about himself
in his poems.
So he said.
But the work is
self-revelatory: veiled confessions,
repeated choices -- water, sea motion,
weather, the sky -- introspective isolation --
those silences and descriptive phrases
that communicate and characterize.
Human, no one --
especially not poets --
can really hide.
