The Short Fear Poem by Ben Jonson

The Short Fear

Rating: ★2.7


My awkward grossness grows: I go down, through

I maintain my self in the conviction
that I have as much to say as others
and more apposite ways of saying it

Certainly I feel it has all been said

The short fear is that even saying it
in my own way is equally pointless

Ben Jonson
