Line Gauthier Poet Free verse

How Quick

how quick she is
to pass judgment

little need for facts
why bother
they only clutter
and get in the way
slowing down the process

doesn’t she feel effective
and utterly proficient
passing a verdict
in one minute flat

simplifying life
in record time
breaking down the structure
into black and white

Line Gauthier January 20, 2019 at 4:24 PM We certainly should make a concerted effort to improve. Thanks for your much appreciated visit and comment, ML.
