I lost two cities, lovely ones. And, vaster, some realms I owned, two rivers, a continent. I miss them, but it wasn't a disaster. very nice poem. ton y

The art of loosing and acceptance of decay is as it may. The inverse of boiling the lobster alive... Indeed a disaster. With unavoidable phases, no predictability mingled in a tapestry of danger, fight or flight, stay or depart, an art without reliable treaties or crush courses.

The final twist is superb. The poem maintains it’s tempo till the end.

i love this poem it kind of reminds me of joker kind of edgy like that. im kind of like the joker in a lot of ways and this poem really resonates with me. im kind of insane if you dont know me and a lot of times people just dont understand the pain, ha ha. But this poem is perfect for me and i really like it thanks langston hughes for this master piece.
