Emotions run deep, and deeper they must seep But what do they seek? Nothing but sheltering words, be it from a Sheik, or a Greek. The imagery is both out-worldly and unspeakably realistic We try to find a way, a channel, a historical shuttle Only to have it expressed in vague words "Here, another puzzle". The words dance in rhythms and riddles Sometimes unfathomable, Yet once aligned, they cast a spell. The spell is poetry.. and it has a society Countless souls, and souls yet to come 11th of August, marked the arrival of its rightful king Tired and tireless, a lifetime of embodying poetry O captain, my captain! Let us roam the forgotten streets and share a bottle of cheap gin Let us whisper inappropriate jokes into the ears of those who deem suicide a great sin! And Let us remember that once conscious, mankind was in tragedy, but through comedy, we found our remedy. Rest in Pieces, For I swear to Jesus, I can hear your laugh at "Pieces".

A Thing or Two About Poetry (A Tribute)
