    Poem Commentary

    It's been my life since the Army and an accident.

    MISERY MINE

     The strength from my body is taken
    My nerves are frayed yet numb
    There are many with greater problems
    Although my mind allows just one
    Self pity or selfish I do not know?
    I try to concieve but fail
    It's like spending life in prison
    Or six feet deep in hell?
    I pray the Lord release me
    Forgive me of my deeds
    To shed His grace and mercy
    Until the day I'm freed?
    How much longer must this go on
    It is my lingering thought?
    Will it last until my dying day
    The answer I have not?
    But through misery and forsaken
    I have learned but oh one thing?
    That faith in God will keep me
    Beneath His mighty wing.

    Thanks. I'm sorry about your disability. I fell 30 feet in 1987 compressing my whole body frame and breaking my back. I'm an Ordained Minister, but I have severe bouts with depression still. My outlook I need to keep as possitive as I can, but I keep any amount of faith I can muster. Peace from the Dove above,Samster.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
