    Black Widow
    dusk’s sinewy patch
    slinks a black cat arching red,
    mating season’s growl:
    creaming web peeks out,
    brandishing its bright honey
    salving his delights,
    midnight at high noon
    minding blackening gardens
    slaver her raised kiss

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
