Raymond Farrell Poems

Chasing happiness
In the hopes
Of catching it
Is like running
...

I love you
Before coffee
After coffee
With coffee
...

Even when I graduated
As an undergraduate
In the year 1977
A baccalaureate degree
...

If poetry
Is going to become
Truly relevant
In this chaotic world
...

The forces of nature
Will not be abated
By the pleas of mankind
No matter how eloquent
...
