“To be a poet is a condition, not a profession.” — Robert Graves

Poetry is an art, a passion that can only be written by those who are gifted with the power of creativity. It can be the most wonderful of fairy tales to the one of histories darkest most sad moments.

Dark like sorrow, sad, depressed 

Where the elders body lays to rest 

A bad man fryd  left unforgivable strife 

For no man's whit can brighten life  

As the great steel doors close to the world 

As a killer hides behind the upper lip curled 

A traveler possessed by an evil way 

Mourns to see the light of day 

Hundred years of family roots 

Ripped out thy Earth by cowardly brutes 

For no man nor woman shall bare the sight 

Of their people scorched by fire light bright 

For no matter what yer peoples are 

The fires light leaves a ghasty scar.
