Sociological Illogic Reminiscence Tears plunk plenteous For beloved movie star departed So many have seen screen legends fall And dropped and balled Hundreds will gather in theaters To pay homage to vision of their youth Retrospect of silver screen collects Roll out the red carpet Amidst it all, poets with less admired fame Gain cultish tears amongst their peers Leery eyed we weep for death of poet Who gladdened our heart with gentle parts Of lyrical stimulus, dim resonant days That pulled and swayed our moods In private retrospection in book read On park bench, or blanket in field Even kneeled in instances, our favored Lover of words pulled us into prayer Or proposal to another Cry now for the poet never read Musician unheard Artist never seen Who has not preened self-repute For the achievement of creation Belongs to so many unknowns Pine boxes scrawled upon By cotemporaries who missed Dead poet reminisced By few
