Sun In An Early Morning. Poem by RIC BASTASA

if poetry makes us
a little bit fit, or when
it sheds off our
much-earned fat,
makes us strong
and in happy disposition,
everyone could have
taken that by now.

you won't take the bite
not the trend
but there is this
everlasting effect

this cause of our
sorrow
and consequences of
all our actions...

i am telling you it is.
and it does.

at the end of the day
one wonders why i still
have this
hidden energy still coming
out like

sun in an early morning.
