    Reverence

    Is love so wicked as portrayed?
    Flickering whispers always astray
    Constitutions raised and fought
    Cynical minds destroying thought
    Preparations for religions sin
    All of earths righteous men
    Cultivating pride of secrets held
    These holy walls know oh so well
    One man creates a powerful gain
    Worshiped, glorified, holding saint
    Infamous powers creating true
    Words of wonder only few knew
    Here we stand on beckoning end
    Darkening skies seem to end
    Or is this a feudal flaw
    A treachery befriending all
    A disillusion created to hail
    The king of men one day to reveal

    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
