Poetry

We’re Not Beaten yet and Never Will Be

No matter how you try humanity will never die

Slay the dragon! (Image by Silviarita on Pixabay)

Feet firmly planted

Square root of four is two

My shoes

Face ever forward

Pen clutched defiant

In left hand

Points to a future

Where I stand as before

Strong in my convictions

Darkness disappears

We light the way

Flames of resilience

Devour the danger

Of complacency

Oak stands steadfast

Testimony to the broken plow

Of unreason

(Misunderstood the season

Scattering scorn

In the fields of reason)

The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn

Ralph Waldo Emerson has said

A thousand years of peace from only one voice shall be born

Do the math and join the chorus

Great days lie ahead

Ebullient people

Add a verse y’all

This is life

Not a rehearsal.

Don’t Give up — Peter Gabriel with Kate Bush
