A voice...Much like a bullet...Sparks a genuine movement...


Poem Artwork

MAKE A DIFFERENCE


 


 


Daisy chains


Fluorescent focus


Frustrated souls


United


Beleaguered laws of social lay


Raging thirst for change


Tambourines


Sacred drums


Stoic chants


Grow stronger


Truth shines


Pristine


Through the muck of evil


Hapless bureaucracy


Tainted politics


The people


Rule transition


A voice


Much like a bullet


Sparks a genuine movement


There comes a time


Defiance


Arrives


Instrumental


Alter destiny


Feed the starving babes


Insanity is rampant


We look the other way


It’s time


Practice kindness


Demand accountability


I’ve glimpsed this story’s ending


Righteousness prevails


Revelation tells the tale


We must make a difference now

Bill, this so inspired me this morning, brought gooseflesh to my body. This has so much inspiration & the voice of a caring soul. We all need to reach out to touch the souls of those who are ailing (regardless of the ailment), because they are so weak they can't help themselves & we never know what brings a homeless or less fortunate one to this point. I truly enjoyed this...God bless!

Well worth the read, Bill. You are right on the point that we must do something now and we can start on our knees....

Blessings,
