    Skeleton

     

    Skeleton bones.

    Mommy, Mommy help me.

    He is wasting away.

    He is nothing more than bones.

    Melting away is what he is doing.

    I see nothing left in him.

    Not a fight no reason to live.

    Drinking away his sorrows.

    Its hurting him more than he knows.

    He's just a skeleton.

    He don't want to live.

    I sit here day after day and watch him slowly slip away.

    Farther and Farther out of my reach.

    What can I do other than try and stop him.

    He don't hear what I'm saying.

    I am no one to tell him what to do.

    He is all that I have left.

    I wish you could see just how much you mean to me.

    But what can I do ?

    Sit here and watch him waste away.

    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
