"Armed only with my wounds though / The passion of poetry / They know well I do not know / And that is enough for me"

Transcendental Sonnet #1404:

Saturday Sad Smile

 

My young friends speak of battle

Of warfare of the spirit

I see they are not cattle

And so I smile to hear it

 

Armed only with my wounds though

The passion of poetry

They know well I do not know

And that is enough for me

 

I have embraced this and that

Through the years and through the tears

Now I just embrace my cat

With a sad smile face my fears

 

Only poetry and pain

As the world turns round again

She Intrigues Me, Revelations Of Love by Jon Willey

If you tend to believe romantic, passionate, masculine poetry is a thing of past eras, read "She Intrigues Me," and be swept away in the beautiful craft of a contemporary poet of love.
