Power poetry from D. Wallace Peach
Rail against despair
When deceit inters the truth
When corruption shrieks
And Narcissus chokes the void
With yowls from a vacant heart
For Colleenโs #Tanka Tuesday #Poetry Challenge. We had to use synonyms for empty (vacant) and space (void).
Sorry about the politics. I couldnโt help it with those prompts.
Another fantastic post. Yes Diana! ๐
