Tuesday's Writing #No 7-Heard it all before

Tuesday'sWriting#No 7-Informal Talks



Prompts: informal, elevated, empathy

Heard it all before

An informal talk
They say
From elevated positions and minds
They spout rhetoric
Then they yell
Instead of using diplomacy
They seem like two of a kind
No empathy for others
But one is definitely
Worse than the other
With his threats  
Followed up by tests
And proof of purpose
Haven't we heard this all before?
We’re all on edge again
Please no nuclear war!

Tantalizing Tuesday's Tete-Tete's #No 6- Try

Tantalizing Tuesday's Tete-Tete's #No 6- Try 

Prompts: Inextricable, beacon, fabulous

To some the past and the present
 Are inextricable
But if we can leave the past hurts
Behind us
Not forget or forgive
Just move on
So we can find that beacon of hope
The fabulous future that can happen
If we only try
