An Open Letter to the Flat Earth Society
Do you sometimes use GPS
To navigate your flat world?
Did you ever wonder how all those satellites
Get around to the underside?
Do you use a flush toilet
Or a siphon?
See, fluids can sometimes run uphill.
Your “the Amazon River is flat” theory
Fails to hold water.
Did you ever consider an Antarctic cruise?
Did you ever want to sail around the South

An Open Letter
All the days of my life, nobody helped me with money except myself and limited, recognized number of family members. I never asked any favor from anybody, but I'm very grateful to God for having very few supportive and loving family members and friends who are still around for me. I

Open Letter
The promised rain ate itself in the clouds
Without spilling a drop down
Changing swings for the roundabouts
On the sunny street of uptown
I saw an open letter, a piece
Of white paper, spinning down from the sky
It was written there if you see this
Don’t tell, and don’t wonder why.

An Open Letter For You
An Open Letter For You
I loved you the way I know how to love someone. Yes, I’ve had my faults in the relationship but you know why I overthink a lot? It’s because you did not give me enough assurances. You know that I overthink a lot and I should not tell you what to

Open letter
USA, Britain, Australia and France
You people of the Anglo-Saxon world
Damn you for letting this war go on
Your hatred of all things Russians
Knows no limit goes back to the time
of the Tsars
Sacrificing Ukraine for the ideology
That you are the rulers.
No, Russia, the far east and Africa
Will not bend to your dictate

An Open Letter To President Putin
Oh, you powerful president of great Russia:
The largest country in the world
With its 17.1 square kilometers area
Covers 1/8 of the inhabited land of the globe.
Why have you attacked neighboring Ukraine?
Why started killing its people and devastating their land,
At the moment they hadn't caused any harm to you
Neither had they intended their country to

An Open Letter To a Growing Girl
AN OPEN LETTER TO A GROWING GIRL
You’re growing up and a woman you’ll be,
Before you know it some changes you’ll see.
Your body’s pretty, but it’s going to get
So many new changes it will be prettier yet.
And suddenly someone will look at you, and
You’ll be quite attractive to some fine young man.
He will go crazy as

An Open Letter To a Growing Boy
AN OPEN LETTER TO A GROWING BOY
Your body soon will tell you it’s time to be a man;
Some changes start to happen--it’s all part of God’s plan.
Some hair will grow new places, and soon you’ll start to shave;
The sex drive will start calling, but, young man, you must be brave.
You must learn how to save

Joe Demino and Dr Thomas Wells Open Letter
I
Many great poets, two especially Grace -filled
One adores biblical and scientific truth
The other is masterful with American "culture"
I love both their beautiful minds, big hearts
How do I NOT mention Jesus and Scripture
When I would never be here but for His change
Of me from an arrogant Hindu - similar to arrogant Bible-thumping Christians?
Jesus help them help

I've held some stuff inside for too long but this is my open letter
I could be okay by myself, but I'd rather us be broken together

An Open Letter To Sir Depression
It took my last brain cells working together to figure out your gender.At first I honestly thought you were female considering how society says that those affected by you "are just seeking attention" , but when the sun was not shinning on my lawn you paid me a visit.It made sense for me to think

An Open Letter To My Former Employer
So, XYZ Company, after my five years of servitude and loyalty
you close the doors, you dissolve the department
with less than a day's notice, because, hey, that's all we deserve-
And it was no accident you announced right before Memorial Day
So you don't have to give us holiday pay
And of course you think that's fair
You would rather

Open Letter
My children
how the world changes
and all that we once dreamed of
becomes a conciliatory compromise
I and you
in time we find
to walk amongst their ruins
in sad memories of those things to which
we were inspired
I had hoped for better
for myself
and grander opportunities for you
in loving you
that wish
now turns its tether
and ask me “ what was it you

An Open Letter To a Trafficker
Dear trafficker,I am on the run
With face emitting fear
Worn in clothe surged into rag
By the scissors of rape
linen scars
With the screech from angry nails;
narrow escape.
Do not ask why I run
Like a prey dodging the hunters’ gun
from thick darkness I run, in search of sun
I am but a derelict
Worn in tattered smock
As the whirlwind stirs frustration
and
