36). Through the Decade

modern poetry

We don't go through the decade,
And stay unaware,
And keep going.
So, I'd recommend that kind of reassessment;
And not only the times.

I'd agree.
I'd say;
He is to type,
Successful in general,
Here and now,
Subscribed to in interviews.

Examples of before,
Longer ago.

We were both,
In the after sense.
Separate as the scene;
The light of day,
Only an expression.
