Breaking The Silence
An acrostic call to be heard in modern times

Striking thirteen, it’s 1989, silence me, cancel me!
Impose your control and call it what you will!

End it with protest, and let your voice bring them dread.

Wow, you captured the sad, but true reality! Your poem is amazing and meaningful!
Whoaaaa, that was so intense and powerful! Loved your poem!
Excellent point...you covered this empathically in your poem. No censorship and no banned books!
