Esse Resolvendam

A poem should attract and hold

as a snake preying bold

Coiling

Holding 'till emotions are boiling

Grabbing, holding on harder

Pushing one's feelings there and farther

A poem should inspiration invoke

As God to create only spoke

A poem should suspend thought

But in that moment not

Moments then pass

Minutes and hours seem fast

Moments that are comparable to seasons

Remembrance forgoing treasons

A poem should suspend thought

But in that moment not

A poem should not watch time

But have time watch the poem's crime

For all the wasted thought

Or the thought that was not

For the answers all seek

So many waiting for many a week

A poem should not be decided

But considered
