Open Letter To Charles Bokowski

Mr. Bokowski I really enjoyed your poem Dinosauria We. It really describes a lot of the events happening today, which were the same events that happened in your day, history repeated itself yet again. Some people consider you to be a radical or they say your poem is just you being dramatic but I don't. I see you're poem as a glimpse into the future, a glimpse into the past, and a glimpse into human nature. Some of  your ideas are straight forward others are cleverly hidden in metaphors but you always seem to get your point across. One question I have about the poem is, what is "this"? I love that you didn't tell us exactly what "this" is in the poem but I can't help wondering. My imagination keeps running wild with ideas, trying to find something that fits the description you gave, human nature is a thought but honestly the possibilities are endless. This could be anything and thats what I love about the poem, the fact that this could be anything. This could be one thing or 10 things the reader never really knows. Mr.  Bokowski you are a brilliant man with an opinion and I thank you for sharing your opinion with me. Your words have made me and countless others looks at the world in a whole new way, trying to figure out "this".
