Poems. . .
"To a poet, a sheet of paper is the bare canvas upon which they decorate with their words and thoughts, their dreams and past revelations, their happiness and sorrow. . . their plea to be attended to. And to the reader, the poem is the periscope into the intimate mind of an artist." - 12/27/1999 (12.20am)
John Khuu, 1981-present,
A student of life, dreamer, poet
"And we sit and drink our coffee
Couched in our indifference,
Like shells upon the shore
You can hear the ocean roar. . .
And you read your Emily Dickinson,
And I my Robert Frost,

|
And we note our place with bookmarkers
That measure what we've lost.
Like a poem poorly written
We are verses out of rhythm,
Couplets out of rhyme,
In syncopated time
And the dangling conversation
And the superficial sighs,
Are the borders of our lives."
--Simon & Garfunkel (The Dangling Converrsation)
