Awake

AWAKE!

Forebear I beg if I am found obtuse
Not turning from the indigent I see
Should I aver egregious a view
They be ascribed a sloth delirium

My comments here may seem not delicate
Yet if I choose travail  to consecrate
Would you in intercession mediate
Bring those in need restored awakening

A tricky one with traps I’m not sure I avoided. Thanks for the feedback, Andrea.
