Jasmine Koria Poet Free verse

Up

Conservatives not going to 'loosen up'
Feminists say no to 'dressing up'
Millennials (still) refusing to shut up!
Cost of living going up
Police pointing guns- people held up
Peace advocates giving up
Children quickly growing up
Political race to move up
Radicals starting to stand up
History ticking- 
TIME'S
UP.
