Thank you for reading
I wanted to write one poem
Wrote many instead
Can’t seem to focus
Especially not on school
Mind occupied by fear
Never been more afraid
Morning of Election Day
Most important yet
Nation divided
Scarf news like never before
Terror has gripped us
Clear lack of justice
It demands your attention
Vote vote vote vote vote
We have the power
To make significant change
Patience, a virtue
Let’s hope these age well…
My wish for 2-0-2-1?
Cooperation.
The year has flown by
Feels like March has just begun
No chance for do-over?
A cough or a sneeze
Nothing can go unnoticed
A hug or handshake
A year without death?
A year without violence?
A year without hate?
