Perspective (Weekly Prompts Wednesday Challenge)

Inspired by and written for the Weekly Prompts Wednesday Challenge, my thanks to Gerry and Sue

Weekly Prompts Wednesday Challenge – Perspective

Form: Deibide Baise Fri Toin

One viewpoint
Leaves opinions in disjoint
And it will end with a tear
Here

To exist
How can we let this persist
Without a neutral save face
Space

To agree
We all must act more humbly
Or should we let all our peace
Cease

I am a freelance writer and poet and started writing after raising my two boys as a way of discovering just who Jez is. That is still very much an ongoing project but the journey so far has introduced me to many wonderful friends and fellow writers through an ever-growing love of poetry.

  2. These words hold so much truth. Expressing one’s opinion now involves a lot of pre thinking. An innocent remark can offend very sensitive people and bruised egos and damaged relationships are the result. It seems that freedom to express your view on a topic must be pre screened, pre planned and pre edited. That is a lot of work in my most humble opinion. 🙂

    1. Thank you Gerry

      Seriously, you can’t say anything without offending a snowflake. I am very much in the okay, let them melt mind-set these days , with the mantra

      If I haven’t offended you yet, please know I am working on it.

      I know, I’m going to hell and all that – meh!

  3. “It is far better to be sentenced to hell once and for all than to experiece its torment on a daily basis when hearing something that offends a person’s extremely sensitive sensibilities”.

    1. I spent 40+ years hiding my self behind the farcical facade of other people’s sensitivity – only person hurt was me as it didn’t matter if they hurt me.

      Now of course I’m a turtle with a hard shell and they are not. I still get it every day, every hour, I refuse to let it offend me I have better things to do like write your fabbo prompts

      I accept the ticket to hell anyway, as the other place sounds so not my thing
