Give me a word
I wrote this little poem a few months but I didn't know how to end it. Give me a word to end this poem AND tell me why you chose it. I'll choose my favorite of the bunch. Also if you're feeling creative you could throw in a title but that's just extra credit. Here's the poem: Misfortune had herself a field day this year Drowned out not by the sound of war nor tears In a way her perseverance is admirable Through death, injustice her hunger insatiable A thousand words to be said about the harm she's done But that's a little lengthy so I'll stick to just one: *INSERT WORD HERE* This is a redo! I'm new at this and accidentally only allowed one entry. Sorry guys.

It is What it Is

Misfortune had herself a field day this year.

Drowned out not by the sound of war nor tears

In a way her perseverance is admirable

Through death, injustice her hunger insatiable

A thousand words to be said about the harm she’s done

But that’s a little lengthy so I’ll stick to just one:

Fair

Because at the end of the day, the creation of her has purpose. In light of her disaster, there are things that cannot be done without her. If she was nothing more but menace, she would be gone, rotten away, dusted, ignored. The collateral damage is simply the price that pays her grace.
