What’s Our Future Hold (Tanka)

What’s our future hold

My only hope is for peace

Peace for our children

Look into their guiltless eyes

How could you pull the trigger

        Do you ever join a community service to visit those in the jail?

      2. Dom DiFrancesco Avatar

        Actually I haven’t, I have done community service before, but not in the jails.

        I see. No worries. Can put your this poetry at the jail. Because the people in the jail might need this to wake them up.

      It really is, but I suppose horrible acts are man’s trademark on this world, very sad.
