Worn Away

Worn Away

Under the feet
of the greedy
resolve is slowly
worn away with time
The downtrodden
deplete of energy
Emotionless
Living with
reluctant acceptance
of what they find
impossible to change

I have been writing poetry since I was a child and it has helped in the good times and bad times. I am always looking within to find the answers to life's problems and to write thought-provoking poetry and prose. Thanks for checking it out. Christine

  1. It is what I feel today with the constant assault on the Constitution and no one calling the President out for the most harmful, egregious behaviors, such as federal troops arresting people and pulling them into vans, like this is Russia. It is so disturbing, and calls with Putin that no one monitors. Scary ime!

    1. Yes Regina, there was some of that behind my words but also the overall treatment of the less fortunate by the republicans. Holding up the bill in the senate so those now unemployed, through no fault of their own, will not get their money in time, but when they do it will be a fraction of what it was. Its quite disgusting 😕
