Indifference is one of those emotions that can destroy people's hopes and dash their dreams, it is often worse than hateful deeds, a poignant write, love Dolly x

I'm not a poet, but I did go read the requirements for the contest. I believe you fulfilled them all, so well done! :) (I chickened out of this one!)
Your poem is timely. We're in the middle of something that we've got to figure out for all our sakes. The poem was well written.
Be blessed and best of luck,
Deb

Excellent work here. I think you hit all the parameters which I think is no easy task. Love the message probably because it seems so true at times. Just waiting... LOL. Thanks for sharing this.

Comment from Raffaelina Lowcock
There are so many issues at this time and so many sitting on the fence.
The main issue I see right now is the lawlessness that is being ignored by some leaders. Congress is a non-starter right now with the Democrats blocking the reform bill re the police.

Sometimes do we pat ourselves in the back for keeping our mouths shut, for not getting involved? I know I have done this. There ARE times for silence and times for speaking out. The more I speak out, the more hard looks I get. (I'm a Mississippian who has been ready to say goodbye to the state flag for YEARS!)
Your tanka is well-written and thought-provoking.
