SWEET DIGNITY
the world slips along
nothing trying to save it
but with grace, we can
but with grace, we can
fight against the flow of fate
slipping past tyrants
slipping past tyrants
decency defines the day
with decisions made
with decisions made
we slip into a new world
of known dignity

IF YOU HAVEN’T VISITED ALL OF OUR POETS SO FAR THIS WEEK, MAKE CERTAIN TO CHECK OUT THE ONES THAT HAVE COME IN RECENTLY. SO MANY GET OVERLOOKED BECAUSE THEY AREN’T ABLE TO GET TO THE PROMPT AND FREE TO WRITE AS QUICKLY AS, SAY, THE GUY THAT COMES UP WITH HE WORDS AND CAN WRITE HIS POEMS LAST WEEEK FOR THIS WEEK IF HE WANTED TO.
