Comment on A Poet's Prayer by Chezzy-Am
*archives comment in the scriptorium* your words have been duly noted.
Also, regarding your questions:
they are in vain as a way of atoning for God's given gifts. In essence, I was think two things when writing this poem:
"Then which of the favours of your Lord will you deny?" (From the Koran)
"And these things we write that our joy may be made full" (From the Bible)
Which is where the last stanza comes in. See... The greatest poet to exist, is our Creator. We're just doing our small bits in this world; which is where we forego the most important thing about our lives:
how important it is to remember why we were blessed with the gift of nomenclature and thinking for ourselves.
That's why the poet's curse is important... like those two quotes above.
... hope that made sense, and solved your qualms.
