Aloof poof, jump off the roof as proof

They use the news to deduce and reduce the abuse

Thrown and blown our way while we moan and groan

Unable to table the insatiable desire for the fable

That makes us weaker, bleaker yet we are eager

For we have aligned, misaligned our brains to malign

Images that damages, and abscond our privileges.

Write After: National Poetry Month with One Poem Only

Write After is a way to encourage poets to listen and write, and use National Poetry Month to highlight how listening to poetry makes us better poets. I know I write the best when I’m surrounded by beautiful poetry–it’s part of the reason I created this podcast, and I want to encourage others to share this practice. We'll get started in April. You can share to #WriteAfterOPO.
