WHO HAS THEM? (poetryrepairshop 99.10:118) |
| Are they any good? These vulnerable things called emotions They can make us hide Or run Most men don't have them Or shouldn't Buildings are made by men who don't have them And shouldn't Keats had them and died young My grandfather had his right leg blown off in World War II He's still alive And guess what? He doesn't have them Computer programmers, twenty-two year old millionaires Do they have them? Probably not Then there is the question of why we have them Too many women with scaly, dishpan hands Sexless lives You can bet they have them, why? Heartbroken, suicidal children They have them For a while anyway And too many of them kill themselves every year because of them, why? There I go having them again Now I'm thinking about how you left me But am I? Should I?
