When Great Poets Die Penniless Poem by Terence George Craddock

When Great Poets Die Penniless

Rating: 5.0


committed

great poets die
in pitiless gutter
when poverty...

defeats us

'there's a writing
beyond time poverty...
(beyond) defeat'

haunts us

a back handed
dark compliement
to Edgar Alan Poe...

post mortem
