Ignited To Action Poem by Saiom Shriver
Ignited To Action
The hardworking man, after
years, it was found,
had never learned to read.
The criminal, the trial
revealed, had slept in
the bathtub every night,
in fear. His mother had
beaten him severely each
time he wet the bed.
The starving stray dog
left pawprints of blood.
We had tred on the sacred
ground of their suffering,
and so withdrew, humbled
and ignited to action.
Michael Connelly wrote
of the criminal sleeping
in the bathtub
