social commentary
There's a rich history of poetry serving as social commentary, intended to inspire calls to action.
Sights Unseen
A light in the night A good or an evil Filled with hope Or something of sorrow? Of folklore or fables, telling tales of lights and victims. Some tell of a light saving stranded victims of the dark, while others tell of the light making victims of man, by guiding them into the dark. Hundreds of stories, some dating back more than two centuries; they share a common theme in plain – a light within the dark. However, the origin from which the story came – begets the end, and the victims fate. Two endings; one telling you to trust the light and the second telling you to avoid it. Which would you choose?
