The Best Poem Of James Hanlon

All There Is

Your life is a flaunt
In which you invent purpose,
Nice it is to do so,
At least so you say.

The gawp of all
When I dare to stare with derision:
I do not like your purpose;
You scorn at my supposed lack of one.

So much better not to judge
Than to be judged.
To rise to heights without direction
And let beauty make a home there.
That is all,
All there is.
