    Poem Commentary

    I was reading a poem called self-worth, i forget the name of the poet. Inspired- I came up with my own little I made it poem.

    Worthless Self

     When it was all over,
    I had accomplished nothing.
    Pausing to look back,
    I take no comfort in knowing
    That I made it.

    Plagued by frustrations,
    Overtaken by sensations,
    Amongst a wiry bunch.
    I should be happy I made it.

    I made it, five hours strong.
    I made it, nearly all day long.
    Purse holding, bag totting
    Man in the mall... I made it.

    I have been dragged along,
    Listening to those silly songs,
    But I had won.
    I have proven I can make it
    Shopping for more shoes
    For her shelf.
    Nothing gained but hey
    I made it!

    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.
