Beholder


The purpose of poems is misunderstood
It is thought of as a painting that’s set
[The poet’s declaration of Bad and of Good]
What these people don’t understand yet-
Is that the poem is a mirror, a reflecting piece
After forming, the image of the poet will cease
And the subsequent glimpse of a viewer will be
That of themselves in some setting they see
However, don’t just take it from me
Look to a work, to the contents in frame
And turn to a friend to see if they see the same.
See if your views share more than a name
