Have you found the one that made you think "This is why I keep trying"

Question: Have you found the one that made you think "This is why I keep trying"!.!.!.!.!.!?

Beggars and Kings

In the evening
all the hours that weren't used
are emptied out
and the beggars are waiting to gather them up
to open them
to find the sun in each one
and teach it its beggar's name
and sing to it It is well
through the night

but each of us
has his own kingdom of pains
and has not yet found them all
and is sailing in search of them day and night
infallible undisputed unresting
filled with a dumb use
and its time
like a finger in a world without hands

Its so interesting how this poem challenges all rules of punctuation; offering not a single little symbol!. Yet, being so deep, with such mtaphor, its so light, clear, and transparent!. If you didn't mention the name of the poet (Mervin or Merwin), I 'd 'v said that its yours; your expressions , your imagery, your eloquent style!. Thanks Www@QuestionHome@Com

Here's Miss Emmy having a hot flash!.

Banish Air from Air—
Emily Dickinson

Banish Air from Air—
Divide Light if you dare—
They'll meet
While Cubes in a Drop
Or Pellets of Shape
Fit
Films cannot annul
Odors return whole
Force Flame
And with a Blonde push
Over your impotence
Flits Steam!.

Not bad, whoever W!.S!. is

As he weeps to wicked birds of prey
Who pick up on his breadcrumb sins
There are no sins inside the Gates of Eden!.
