What sense does this make to you??

Desperate moments


With eyes tight shut


Knelt limbs,and


Arms spread out


I chant whispers of prayers





When im alright


With nothing to bother,


No one to worry


The God im used to pray


I forget in a moment





You%26#039;re a superman


for sure,thought I,


Now I know that its


Not truely right





If god is he


Who is a saviour


A friend in need


A reason to hope


Ever so kind,


Whose mercy


and sympathy


Justice and power


Boundless,infinite


Like the expanse of heavens


Are certain forever


Who changes sin


To a pure moonlit flower,


I guess i know him,


Full flesh and blood


He is a superman


But of superhuman kind.

I never question when something is written in any type of poetic form...even free style and basically un-formed, as above. Poetry is a personal expression and often comes from deeper than merely the words. This is just as artistic expression strives to include deeper meaning and not just present the artist%26#039;s technique.





I will apologize ahead of time to the author of this poem if I am off base. What I see is evidence of challenging times in a life and a time of growth in spiritual maturity because of the pain of the event. The writer is questioning a higher authority [to me that would be God], and the pedestal that the object is on, so to speak, is wobbling but not falling over. If it really is about God, I would venture to say the author has left the realm of %26quot;The Father%26quot; and %26quot;The Son%26quot; and is beginning to hope for the faith and belief in the %26quot;Living Spirit of God%26quot;. This is the maturity that a Christian goes through on the way to self-actualization. If this person is not Christian, then the imagery of goodness is still evident...the writer wants to believe in goodness but is questioning own belief at the time of writing this poem. Goodness is still winning by the end of the poem.





Poetry and art are wonderful modes of expression. You can go back later and see how far [if any] you have come along the road to maturity.
Reply:The last line do you mean %26quot;But of superhuman kind.%26quot; or %26quot;of Superhuman kind%26quot; or what I think appropriate %26quot;of another kind%26quot;?





If that being the case I think the poem is more of a lesson about how we, as christians take prayer for granted, always in need and never in thanks. This is expressed in your first stanza %26quot;Desperate moments With eyes tight shut Knelt limbs,and Arms spread out I chant whispers of prayers.%26quot; Also emphasised in the 2nd Stanza %26quot;The God im used to pray


I forget in a moment.%26quot;





The rest of the poem acknowledges that the Author views God as a Superman which isn%26#039;t quite right, because Superman is fictious character, and God, in the Author sense, is real, and %26quot;A friend in need (of thanks)%26quot; and also %26quot;Full flesh and blood%26quot; these lines lend support to this effect.


This is of course subject to my interpretation.


It needs tweaking but overall its alright by me :0).
Reply:I still think it is your Dad. Why cuz a little girl looks up to her father... believing that they can do anything. Then as an adult we realize that no they aren%26#039;t perfect. They can%26#039;t always do everything that we want or need them to.
