when notification circulated
(validating horror about to befall us

Defenders Endangered (For Free Style! Contest Sponsored By: Syed Amaan Ahmad)
Defenders Endangered

Citizens unite spirits; choose the better part!
Life, God given, stolen by greed’s black-heart.  
Industry progressed far beyond the pushcart.
Thus, setting some selves apart as better…smart.

Outside Masks
Outside, many people’s masks
Are draped below their chins
Or wrapped around their upper arms
Or stuck to clothes with pins.
