To This Poem by K.C. Ford

To This

Rating: 3.2


It all comes down to this,
a stone above my head
declaring birth and date of death.
It all comes down to a mound of earth
where mourners stand, but nothing said,
no thought to share or farewell kiss.
It all comes down to emptiness,
the vacant void, the nothingness.

I liked this poem- -then I read the poet's snotty comment- -and now I wish he hadn't ruined my experience with his poem by writing his oh-so-superior poet note

When comes to think of it, that's all it comes down to, The vacant void, the nothingness. Well done!
