As life returns to normal, post-COVID infection, I thought it might be an idea to write some longer form poems for the next 30 days, to get me back into the business of routine. Fortunately, Twitter has provided an event for that: #NaPoWriMo, which is part of #NationalPoetryMonth.
#21 is another ecological poem I was supposed to put together with the other ones and promptly forgot about. The organizational acumen is beginning to slide but don’t worry, I think I can hold it together sufficiently to last the remaining nine days…
Thank you for taking the time to read, and please comment if you like this 😀
In Borrowed Time
Instead of words
bring forth deeds not yet defined
show a change in currency
from greatest minds who will decree
level the field
whilst guilt remains as space
in which that silence men
defined as guileless parties place
indifference as emphasis
Earth which all walk upon
Instead bring forth a change
greatest minds remains
which silence defined
Earth all walk upon
feel
comfort
pain
in borrowed time
