Analysis of In a room of truth
Mark cloutier 1972 (Kaneohe)
In a room of truth
Is an all encompassing view
That fills its volume
And space and time
And dimensions of each side
Where the smallest of means
Proceed of great things
And where one is at the center
Of a revolving sphere
That falls at each word
Of truth like a sun
And a moon of view
Where light upon shadow fills the room
As the light subsides
On all sides of each day
As the light fades
And the night soon follows
Til tomorrow and a future present
Of past tense of verse
Leaving this room
Of a view of truth
