Is this poem for the people?

triumph



sometimes I wonder



how life can be so good



when you鈥檙e single and alone



with nobody to hold your hand



while you walk down empty hallways



thinking you have no meaning



or no sense of purpose at all.



while most of the men and women out there



are busy spreading their legs and pounding flesh



you sit at home and wonder why it鈥檚 not you



who seems so satisfied with being in love



but we鈥檙e all afraid of something



so you鈥檙e best to fear nothing at all



because the only love in life that you need



is piece of mind in being who you are.



which is not to say that you鈥檙e above them



because nothing is wrong with finding love



but one must not let longing control them



lest they wind up tired and remorseful



rather it is better to understand



that not everybody can be complete



you must accept your lonely misfortune



and enjoy your (disappointing) triumph.

I'm sure it is for the people since you probably didn't intend to just read it to your dog.It is avant garde stuff. That's a high compliment, coming from me. Most people will not care for the honesty in it. I respect how deep you had to reach for it. I do think you should change "piece of mind" to "peace of mind." Just a typo. No biggie.

Seems like three pretty straightforward (and really long) sentences to me. Aside from the formatting, what makes this a poem and not a piece of prose?
As long as they are not 'very little people'...yes.



But remember these Absolutes:



Love is NOT equal to Pounding Flesh



Triumph is NOT disappointing in the end



and



Lonliness is NOT misfortune if we learn to look Above beyond the imperial 'us' (outside ourselves)
