Too bad So sad


Do letters feel the weight of guilt

When they’re twisted into a lie

Or receive salvation from beseeching the lord with prayer

Did they draw straws to see which of them would form a word

So nefarious

Once given voice

No amount of letters can excuse it

Do they grow weary under the glare of judgment they pass so often

Through no fault of their own

What if they gathered in protest

Full of bluster and bluff

Threatening to strike

Forcing a mixture of grotesque pantomime and various scabs and hold outs

To assume their roll

Only to be left speechless

By the voice of a generation

Simply stated:

TBSS SMH LOL
