Bring in the Good Taste

Poem Commentary

We need to be proactive in life. Waiting for things to happen gets us nowehere.

Bring in the Good Taste

Enough is enough.

My patience is running out.

I sit here a pinioned bird,

Watching them all fly high.

My life turn into an unquenched thirst,

An unfinished race.

Who has taken my right to smile?

Where is my cup of coffee?

 

Enough is enough.

My place is there for the taking.

I shall be the pagan to defile the altar,

Desecrate the altar of billion sacrifices.

It's the turn of the sacrificial lamb.

For the lamb to turn the mythical lion,

And bite the hand that raises the blade.

 

Let your screams be sirens awakening,

Echoing the deserted streets,

Where lambs like hounds chase

People past their time.

I can taste the gall in my mouth.

Chew and taste, don't gulp it down.

Spit it out and bring in the good taste.

That's quite an oration of ominous declaration; "Its the turn of the sacrificail lamb, the lamb to turn the mythical lion"--Brilliant applause building!!

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
