“Take sides! Blame one or the other!
Let your words spread the flame
One way or the other or don’t bother
Because this is the way we play our game.”
Game? I ask and wonder
If a poem that promotes harmony is a blunder. .
.
Together cannot mean to get her or him
Harmony hugs harm to transform it
To misspell peace as piece is a sin
So why bite words bit by bit?
Poems simply flow with the flow and think
They can salvage lives before they sink.
