Revolution Poem by Barry Middleton

Revolution



revolution has not yet come
war lingers in a faraway land

just down the selfish street
hungry families await mercy

evolution has not yet filled
our hearts with compassion

poets search for a voice
screaming empty phrases

resolution floats in a breeze
turning its back to the wind

grief spills from tender blood
hopeful lives put on the line

absolution forgets its power
far beyond an insular hatred
