contemplative modified triolet

A chapter in the book Triolets: Traditional and Modified

Hey You!

by adewpearl


Hey, you! the one just sitting there,
it's time to stand up and engage.
I see you squirming in that chair --
yes, you! the one just sitting there.
You'll never change what you despair
by hanging in the wings backstage.
Hey, you! the one just sitting there,
it's time to stand up and engage.
