Lord of the Flies

A man came bumbling alone,
Retched voice crowing a song.

Every man he passed by
Fell, dropped like a fly.

He came close to me as I choked,
Smiled like a shark, he spoke,

"Don't you recognize me? It is I,
Beelzebub, the lord of the flies."

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
