Poems about Poetry
Poetry and Politics
by Eduardo Santos
How hard a poem about politics.
You sit.
Raises.
Come on.
Think.
Write a few words.
Off.
Nothing.
Nothing can describe the poetry in politics.
Poetry requires truths that the politics has not.
Poetry requires feelings that politics has not.
Ethics.
Transparency.
Dignity.
Courage.
Justice.
Does the politics will one day be poetry ?
Will the poetry survive the politics?
