               EMOTION
          By ... Steve Lucky

When reason, judgement, and intellect are gone
Emotion is what remains.
By far the strongest part of the mind
With the unknown power it contains,
It will not let will power get in the way
No matter how determined one might be.
Emotion shapes the very image
Of what appears to be reality.
Happiness, sadness, fear, and anger
Color the black and white world of intellect.
Reactions from emotions are hard to overcome
Whenever one attempts to select
Anything bringing out such feelings.
Nothing we have can ever replace
Positive and negative basic feelings
Towards anything we might have to face.
