    LIFE

    1960
    Life is like a flying bird
    Soaring through the air;
    A flight of destination,
    Or a flight to anywhere.
    Like the bird with destination,
    His flight is upward flown;
    And yet the flight to anywhere,
    Somehow is never known.

    another jewel. Was this written your senior year? Full of wisdom at a young age.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
