I wasn't sure what KINTSUGI was so I looked it up, actually I have heard of the concept but I did not know that was the word. A good analogy to use in your poem
Thanks so much for the kind words, Jenny! Yeah, it's set in the American south, where states are trying to ban abortions and make it a crime to travel to another state to get one. This activity has been a lot of fun.
I love this Version of "She's leaving Home" - When I was a kid my Mum used to play the Sgt Pepper album and I loved this one, I like the way you have set it in America (Greyhound?) To make it a bit different. It tells a story and flows well. You have written some great poems for this competition!
Well, I know a herbal remedy or two...or some physical activity
that might do, might do.
Hugs and chin up.
We of the great order of wokeness will win in the end.
Just ait, around the bend,
even those Repubs bubs will see
throught the orange hate and glee
You say revolution.
I say you're full of shit.
We are not the same.
You call it freedom;
I see it as limiting the rights
of everyone who doesn't
look like you
or agree with your misinformation.
You don't want a revolution.
What you really want
is a revolt
against everything
our Constitution has
long granted us-
all of us.
You describe yourself as
a patriot.
What you really are
is a coward, coerced
into lying trying to save
what little you think you have
while punishing others
for wanting the bare minimums
of what we should be sharing.
You don't understand
that you're being manipulated
into giving up more of yourself
to satisfy an even bigger greed
than yours.
You're begging for chaos.
We the people
desire sanity, equality, and
above all, peace.
Again, we are not the same.
