I am...
#5
Hi tectak. I was intrigued by this poem because for me it reflects the nature of man, or what most of mankind believes. I thought it strange that each line started out with I am, for these two reasons:
1. I am is the name God gives Himself in the Old Testament (and you left out the Jew).
2. I am is similar to iamb or iambus, and in itself, fits.

I don't necessarily agree with the poem, and even though I am sure it wasn't meant to, as a born-again believer L6 rings very true to me.  I find the poem as a whole an incredible voice of many lost people, and so, a tragic piece. I agree that it could be sent back to work. There is too much missing and may require more research.

Best wishes ever to you!
there's always a better reason to love
