Analysis of black poet's last black word
if you are
indeed
in deed
poet,
what for
is
the console?
how come
you sentence
yourself to die?
it is
a taboo after the table
a curse after the verse
a crime after the rhyme
to be consoled
by human being, everest...did you reverberate your very blessings only?
why the joining?
adjourn your courtship!
