Aldo Kraas Poems

I am single out by friends
Because I am single
And most of my friends are married
But the others have girl friends
...

God is saying
Dear men
I have run out of room in my house
And that is why I can't take no one else
...

It is now 6: 30 pm in the evening
And it is almost night here at
Avenue Road
Where I walk
...

I am sorry
But my mind is overloaded with worries
And I feel that I can't let my worries go
Because I feel so overwhelmed by my worries
...

I lived in exile
A long time ago
And I hated every minute
Because the country that I lived in was communist
...

Why must I die?
Because I wasn't made to live forever
why can't I live forever?
Beccause I only live once
...

No one told me
That I would suffer some day in life
No one told me
That somebody one day will treat me like a slave
...

Eventually
There will be a day that I won't have any guilt feelings
For nobody
Because I think that is crazy
...
