There is something awkward,
embarassing to suddenly run into
the poems of a great author's youth,
when they seemingly tried everything,
from concrete poetry to classical forms,
searching what would open a path
to their own voice; these abandoned,
Chernobyl-like ruins suddenly overshadow
the polished masterpieces wrought
in their unmistakable mature style -
for they show that even masters
are not born but made, evolving
through myriad forms into
the shape the creationist reader
has held as unchanged perfection.
