Hobson's Choice

We are never allowed a voice When gasping for our final breath And Hobson didn't offer a choice We are never allowed a voice There is no reason to rejoice For in the regnant grasp of death We are never allowed a voice When gasping for our final breath October 21, 2020 Pick-A-Title, Vol 24 - Triolet Sponsored by: Edward Ibeh

Wise and touching words about that last moment of life. "We are never allowed a voice". A moment to relinquish all ego. Wonderful writing, and congrats on your top win, Jenna.

You captured the final moment well in your verse Jenna, unfortunately a choice we'll all be given at the end. Tom

Let's not tarry on the thought, Tom. He won't listen to our voices, so we'll tune him out, too! Thanks so much.
