Humanity Rising ~ #FormForAll @dVersePoets

~ tritina form ~

Frustration mounts as my core temperature rises

The gift of free will abused, I ready to take on the world

Not with weapons of destruction, rather with this army built on words

There is so much strength for good within the words

Used well against mass consciousness, goodness rises

and with it, a new understanding, a different perception, of this world.

It is we who have stood by, allowing the creation of our world

with our indifference, our ability to ignore the issues, not hear the words

the time has come to end failed systems as humanity finds the courage to rise

Compassion rises and with it a better world is built through the power of the words.

My first attempt at a surprisingly tricky form.  Pick three words, said Samuel Peralta...and it should write itself. Well, Sam...I've done my best, and will continue to learn as I dive into the other poet's fine words going up at FormForAll over at dVersePoets. You're welcome to join us...I'm pretty sure Sam has saved you a seat!
