Suggest v shouting

The evidence is in; it says I believe:
That to suggest a call to make
Gets us further down the path
Than shouting “Justice for the Dying!”
That I do not know anyone’s final best
And that I feel disappointed in myself
To not have gotten it all

Maybe I have it

Maybe I have it
Wanna take the chance?
Mask up

Rap across my knuckles

A rap across my knuckles
Yet training wheels for the next times:
What little I did in the face of
What I did not do and
The way her dying was deadened

A pinch is a signal

Well now. It must have pinched deep in my innards, to have me writing two poems! Such a pinch is a signal to look, perchance to change. This is gouging with the pen—more painful than a scalpel! And messier.
