social commentary
There's a rich history of poetry serving as social commentary, intended to inspire calls to action.
My Dear Red
I have seen you in many shades, in valentine cards, in dangling earrings, in a silk scarf, a bouquet of flowers or just an old half used pencil. I always loved how you made me feel, alive and kicking…as if emerging from a womb. You were no doubt my favorite. Only time I didn't want to see you was through a wound, mine or others.
