The World, by Henry Vaughan -- why does poetry work so well?

The World, by Henry Vaughan -- why does poetry work so well? | I saw Eternity the other night,
Like a great ring of pure and endless light,
All calm, as it was bright;; And round beneath it,
Time in hours, days, years | image tagged in ring galaxy,poetry,stars | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

Not waving but drowning

Not waving but drowning | Oh, no no no, it was too cold always
(Still the dead one lay moaning)
I was much too far out all my life
And not waving but drowning. (Stevie Smith, 1957) | image tagged in waving,drowning,poetry | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

Money can't buy character.

Money can't buy character. | Rich as you are Death will finish you: afterwards no one will remember
or want you: you had no share in the Pierian roses
You will flitter invisible among the indistinct dead in Hell's palace darting fitfully
