Rites Or Rights

A propensity for indiscretion
       wedded to transgression
       may lead to intercession --

         potential suppression
         ~ teen rites of expression

I agree w/Kim ... a mind-bender muse placed in a thought blender, Gershon. Thirsty Soupers feel free to slurp G's poetic epiphany leisurely. Love and more love always.

Thought provoking! No “restraint” in your writing :)

That's only because there no such noun as 'restrention!' (to rhyme with the others in this poem). lol. Thanks, Kim!

I think you can pretty much throw the teens supression out the window these days though; nice try! Loved the rhymes.

'Teen suppression' will come back, amazingly enough, to some parts of this country. There's a profound backlash coming. Part of that will be back to 'basics.' Mark these words. The pendulum's swung way too far to the left. It's due to head right soon...
