Michael Vacek Poet Rhyme

What If You Are Wrong

You know within that you are right!

Your words tear at our guarded flesh.
Canines raging at every bite.
Life's essence weeps after each thresh.
Silence does not mean we agree.
Taking each jab of your blunt prong,
Our eyes fixed on what you don’t see.

I must ask you, "What if you're wrong?"

Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart November 10, 2017 at 8:25 PM An energized pen, I've felt that. So sharply penned! Michael Vacek November 11, 2017 at 5:25 AM It is amazing what little we actually 'know' outside of ourselves.

Vijay Pandit November 10, 2017 at 5:50 PM Like the poem--well written--opening and ending lines are quite effective! Michael Vacek November 11, 2017 at 5:28 AM Thank you Vijay,. We have all faced others' strong opinions in our life. Most often, these opinions are off the mark, but can sometimes hurt nonetheless.
