Those Letters Unspared
Often accused of abusing the words,
I stand guilty here as charged
Their purpose to serve my feelings unnerved,
when into the darkness I bard
Used as a shield, my will not to yield
their ink splattered blood stains aglow
No guilt do I bear for those letters unspared
—as their corpses define what I know
(Villanova Pennsylvania: March, 2018)
