Looking Glass Poem by Tony Miller

Looking Glass

Rating: 3.6


There is no good reason to let anger grow.
The ones who are empty will remain
That way, lost in their own foggy lives,
As if the thick white cumulous is a
Gorgeous suit to dwell in. They live as poets,
Yet think as philistines on the wrong road,
hopelessly drunk with all that they lack,
Led by eyes as blind as grim stone,
In the night darker than the worst human fears.
So what does one do but watch and let the eyes
Come clean; let pupils reveal their dim-witted truths.

Nice contained anger...which makes the poem strong and intense. As Lamont P. loves to say, there is a nice beat of musicality in this poem. I like it.
