This is a song for the genius child.
Sing it softly, for the song is wild.
Sing it softly as ever you can -
Lest the song get out of hand.
<i>Nobody loves a genius child.</i>
Can you love an eagle,
Tame or wild?
Can you love an eagle,
Wild or tame?
Can you love a monster
Of frightening name?
<i>Nobody loves a genius child.</i>
<i>Kill him</i> - and let his soul run wild.
This poem was great why do people hate! Because of fear, jealousy, envy I get sick of the same old song over and over! Always the same what do they what from me!
Sing it softly, for the song is wild. Sing it softly as ever you can - Lest the song get out of hand. Lovely.
Wow! Really this a beautiful, innocent and soft song for a child which is very motivational poem. If no one loves a genius child this provokes thought and brings sadness. Soul of genius child ever shines. A marvelous poem is chosen on this day as modern poem of the day....10
Nobody loves a genius child.//Kill him - and let his soul run wild. (I'm sorry for my English) Dear Langston Hughes, I think that there is no need to say more about the essence of the reality of our human society that nobody loves. I like the trembling nervousness that unloads all your rage for this human destiny. Find the baby you love after dying. Riza
