Yesterday’s Oath

Are you willing to shoulder

the burden that was left

by those no longer heard

 

To write those things

they never wrote

inspired by their every word

 

To take that next step

they never took

to reach beyond their grasp

 

Clearing the way for those unborn

to pick up the mantle

— embracing the past

 

(The New Room: March, 2024)
