Analysis of By Others Felt
Am I at all responsible,
for what occurs outside myself
Is it at all defensible,
to ignore those feelings dealt
Is my world then co-dependent,
on what happens somewhere else
Are the answers free to self-sustain,
or conjoined—by others felt
(Bryn Mawr Pennsylvania: June, 2019)
