social commentary
There's a rich history of poetry serving as social commentary, intended to inspire calls to action.
Political Thirty-Four
Another cold day... The news turns to the public. January burns. * Note: I am not trying to be cryptic with my work. And I am not so desperate to think that any words will make a difference now. I just feel that this is a turning point that I predicted when more idiots with weapons were unleashed in the streets of Minnesota. And some people say they are angry or enraged. If you are, and you are not doing anything about it...you are not angry enough.
