| On Poetic Clarity G. Stolyarov II |
||||||
| If you seek ambiguity, In searching here, You do but err. Who fancies incongruity, And worships the unclear, Best look elsewhere. Some poets will A mystery invent, To leave unsolved. I say with thrill: "I do dissent! Let all doubt be dissolved!" Men Reason need, To learn of right, Not impotence, And truth to heed, And in discovery delight, Of why and how and whence What is, is such, And whether it need be. There is no sense To not include so much In clearest poetry. To those that ask, My poet's task Is not to veil, But to display, Nor but suggest What I can say. Readers need not Infer the rest With guesses wrought To no avail, For, what I thought, I here expressed, For all time to prevail. G. Stolyarov II is a science fiction novelist, independent filosofical essayist, poet, amateur mathematician and composer, contributor to organizations such as Le Quebecois Libre, Enter Stage Right, the Autonomist, and Objective Medicine.
