In a world

Where tyrants gobble power

By cruel dominance,

There whispers also

The small voice

Of kind-souled cognizance.

With hands that hold the weak

And hearts that see

The sorrow,

They will become the light by which

We’ll write a new tomorrow.

Merriam-Webster’s word for July 10, 2018:

Benevolent

Pink, greens, purple and some blues

Siamese white and yellow, too

A bike that somehow rose and flew

Graffiti that some hoodlums drew:

This building will stand out to you!

If you disfigure truth

So far that

Facts no longer

Recognize their own face

In your mirror,

You have transgressed

Beyond white lies

To become

A grotesque interferer.

More than cookies and cake

Fruit will forever first place

Even as all others hunkered down

Ahead of the incoming hurricane

And seaweed caked foam splattered sand

She walked on,

Her umbrella

Less a shield

Than battleground.

It is not everyday

You see ostrich crew

Arrive for your order

At the Drive-Thru,

Or have zebras peek in

To ensure you are pleased

Beating deer to the chase

To customers’ ease.

He may be a bit eccentric

And his music may be bold,

But his mama will be happy

That his head will not be cold,

That someone is watching over

Just in case he should be told,

That it is time to eat the snack

Before his energy will fold.

Merriam-Webster’s word for July 7, 2018:

Eccentric
