John Farnsworth Poems

There was me.
There was me and the line.
There was me and the wall.
There was me and the hurdle.
...

I have seen a butterfly-winged heart and soul.
That painfully glowing apparition of light was such a fine gossamer dream
that it had to be touched.
I killed it.
...

When the bomb is dropped may i be so near
my somber sullen soul be turned to ash.
Let loose to drift upon atomic breeze.
So fortunate to pass in brilliant flash.
...

The Best Poem Of John Farnsworth

There Was Only Me

There was me.
There was me and the line.
There was me and the wall.
There was me and the hurdle.
There was me and the foe.
There was me and the challenge.
There was me and the doubt.
There was me and the mountain.
There was me and the darkness.
There was me and the fear.
I crossed the line.
I scaled the wall.
I leapt the hurdle.
I bested the foe.
I rose to the challenge.
I forsook the doubt.
I climbed the mountain.
I lit up the darkness.
I faced the fear.
There was only me.
