In Hope, Seek Out by Jessica Ni Leacai



In Hope, Seek Out by Jessica Ni Leacai

Of what is metered
Of what is written
In episodes
In eulogies

In verses of volumes
In times of treason
Pen sense
Pen certainties

Let not ideas escape
Let not thought exclude
Non remedials
Non rebuttals

For minds must implore
For hearts must entrust
Given sympathies
Given apathies

Deem all practice performed
Deem all patience paralleled
Stand tall
Stand alone
