Free-style poem: human suffering writing prompt entry
Writing Prompt The topic for this contest is: Human suffering. |
It's hard to be human. Alone, we can do a little to end suffering. Organized groups can do more. But a civilized society can do the most good through government. Isn't that really the purpose of government? Where are we failing? Unfortunately, we fail because we ARE human. And so I simply sit and write, drink coffee, and listen to the ticking of my clock. God forgive us.
