Out

People lashing out,
People cashing out,
People looking out,
People booking out,
People wearing out,
People staying out, 
People growing out, 
People freaking out,
People shouting out,
People rubbing out,
People knocking out,
People shopping out,
People shooting out,
People opting out.

Time running out.

Hello David, this poem was thought-provoking. TV or the newspaper would show examples of these "OUTS" wouldn't they? So many so tired, so angry. Your poem would make an interesting high school assignment. Students research one example for each OUT sentence. Glad 2 have found this one.

Nice of you to say so Kate. I like doing these sort of poems that amplify the message and get people thinking and hopefully making even one small change happen. Regards David.
