Edward Ibeh Poet Verse

Being a Good Citizen

If you see 
   Something, or hear 
      Something 
         That could cause harm,
            Or perhaps much worse, 

Say something! 
   Please do... 
      The right thing.
         Observe 
            And report 

What you find 
   To be suspicious 
      It could be a matter 
         Of...
            Life and death. Act fast!


             (Yalto)


"Yalto" is a form invented by yours truly.
Lines 1-15: 3,4,2,4,5,3,2,3,2,3,3,5,6,1,5 syllables
