hopeful thoughts

(also known as ‘pompous thoughts’)

deafening
howls of hate
may
yet
be

quelled

simply
by

knowing
believing
fairly
justly

collectively

that
you

me

him

she

her

they

us

yes us
may still

share
a
kinder
gentler fate

but only if
i

you

her

they

him

us
yes us

begin
anew

and then

when peace is what we all shall wage

we may then

and only then

begin to scribble afresh

new
dreams
aspirations
hopes

collectively

on

a

new
fresh page.
