Preludes to Kisses

Poem Commentary

Nature abhors a vacuum -- Beckawho?

Preludes to Kisses

never full, never empty
leaving particles
blurred to add to confusion 
memories leave the mind like a vacuum
floating, ceasing to be
    a headache 
    take a pill


1983

Down Uno

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
