Not Of This World Poem by Richard Wlodarski
Not Of This World
I do think
I am not
Of this world
I cannot
Damn conform
To screwy restrictions
I try try try
And die die die
What the hell
Why not die?
'cause I now live
Wanna so live
Yet, death's not far
Every word in this poem is 100% relatable, it is hard to mask ourselves the way others want us to, in order to survive. The last line just hit home that mortality is its own isolation. God be with you Richard so that you my continue your tasks of providing us these gems.
You've left me speechless, Kevin! So many many THX to you for your very insightful commentary! And for your last line...that means the world to me!
Glad to see, dear Richard that things are better now. Your excellent poet-person deserves the best!
Dear Richard, a poem that expresses deep 'angst' of life and death. Very beautifully penned.......Top score
Receiving such a very positive appraisal of this poem from one of the highest esteemed poets is indeed a great honour. And especially so much more meaningful because the poem is part of my first book in The Kerouac Project. So many THX, Geeta!
Sometimes it is very difficult to face the ugly situations and you feel low and depressed. Such thoughts come into mind. Nice expression of frustration. Loved the ink.
Very grateful for your visit, comments and loving of my poem, Poet Panda!
Thank you very much, Lorraine Black for adding my poem to your favourites!
