Premium Member Protesting Pachyderms
Fabulous elephant poetry monks endlessly murmuring verse through their trunks. Protesting pachyderms trumpeting tales, waging their war against ivory sales. African, Indian, it matters not; Horton’s rough rampage will make your ears hot! --------- tridactyl dums, for lack of a better description... ...

What it's Like to be Me
Between falling asleep to Taylor swift And writing everything out in lists Being me can be interesting Spending each summer protesting Marching around Cadillac holding posters Writing poem after poem looking for closure Ignoring everyone who dares to try to get ahold of me after school Tell me in person if you can, it’s an unspoken rule I sign up to get emails...

Why at our age are we still protesting? Why do we feel the need? Because the fire of hope for a better world still burns inside us… and because it’s never too late to plant a seed. If we can plant one seed of understanding help just one person open their eyes and see perhaps one day we’ll stop ignoring and whitewashing...

Protesting Authority Miracle Man Thoughts 5-8-2022 Oft times we protest making the evening news, and it isn’t always from our differing in views. Rather than bend to authority & take a back seat, we’ll make signs and line both sides of a street. Following others advice blindly we simply won’t, and it isn’t always about what we believe, or don’t. But all about the...

Premium Member My Thoughts On Protesting
My Thoughts On Protesting Miracle Man 3/14/2022 Protesters, are squeaking wheels in search of grease. Often getting their way by disrupting peace. Always airing their gripes while carrying a sign. It’s a difference of opinion that hatches their whine. Fear and intimidation is the game many play. Feeling they’re the only ones who should have any say. There’s something to be said for these harnessed voices. When numbers grow large it tends to...

Out Loud and Clear
Green and growing; educated youth is a warrior, helping country to grow and rise. To prevent democracy from becoming a book of rights and crime in disguise. To fight out injustice they quickly take charge, without calculating the loss and price. . Whether it is protesting or simple candle march. Never scared of the valiant...

Protesting Written: by Tom Wright 7-8-2016 Protesting has become a dangerous game, Creating property damage and often killing. It accomplishes little but occurs just the same, Working on inequalities seems we’re unwilling. Those thought oppressed want their payday, Spouting slogans and shouldering their signs. Thinking this might another’s opinion sway, Desiring to rise above their present confines; But I don’t see protest as getting this...

Premium Member My Thoughts On Protesting
My Thoughts on Protesting 2/20/2018 Tom Through open revolt, dissenting views are expressed, It’s always about principle, with me, not the reason. I won’t become a prisoner to any threat or protest, And I visualize occurrences as another “silly season”. When many disagree, they soon craft a crude sign, And it’s never an issue what the majority might say. Then march in the streets...

Protesting Ducks
As I ambled around the village pond I skimmed a stone through reed and frond, In distress, ducks took flight Guilty I, to cause them fright. Protesting loudly in their quacking My common sense seemed sadly lacking, I never thought that stone I chucked Would cause such grief, to little ducks....

Protesting Poets
Poets in the pot Striving not to get cooked For poverty in the hood As gotten all hooked Becoming ingredients of hunger For all to maw A new season... A fresh session... For the wrong reason... Recession a new name Best known to them Stimulating ideas cocooned We are the laughing flock of several rudderless shepherds Life of a wordsmith activist Still in the soup...
