A poet touched Me by Walter LaVerne Jones Saturday, July 31, 2004 Not rated by the Author. Share Print Save Become a Fan Poe was a poet mis-understood, but his words leave pictures for the mind and the ear..
He cradled the kittens in his arms gave the last of the food and drink thanked them for keeping her warm laid with her by the sea Heard Raven scream nevermore as the angel touched his head and demon danced in the ash pendulum swings like a blade of death As the pain of wrath tears my soul I let the words fall where they may weather in the last smoke of a troubled life drink filled in dank corners of death Another's lives in my words spread sells the lie perpetuates the story as commercial falls in the chapter of the dead he eats well as I turn in the tomb hungry and alone

Blessed are those that can sing to honor her/his peers. "A poet touched Me" opens the doors of respect, and sings with a voice of fraternity. In admiration, Andre Emmanuel Bendavi ben-YEHU
