I'm listening to you universe
I'm calling out to you with the heart of a child
With words that are too hard to say
Yearning for the majestic and divine
That comes to those in need
Asking you to fill this void with pure so I can serve
Bigger than the wars we face
As innocent as one who knows not the way
Teach me so that I will not walk in vain
That you may grant me faith away from that which taints
So that I can find refuge in your grace
I opened my eyes so that I may see your face
To let it be known that I am listening.

Public Announcement Challenge Winners
For the Public Announcement Challenge, writers were asked to work inside voices built for control. These were notices, warnings, and updates meant to inform rather than confess. The strongest entries committed to that form and didn't break from it. Corporate memos, formal government alerts, and internal policy language were held consistently, allowing emotion, fear, grief, or humor to surface indirectly through pressure rather than declaration. The following poems recognize the voice of authority, and let human feeling slip through despite all its rules and restraint.
