A letter lies upon the moonlit desk It's black ink radiant as it is bold The table lamp spits into life only buffered by the musty air The title unambiguous Marching words appear with courteous ease Their robust order craves no inspection Naked defiance is laid bare No options left unturned A cooling fan tickles the senses The critics forehead tips forward in deliberation Drops of sweat plunge like Autumnal lawyers A Coracle packed with words flows across the page The quill wavers on the final line Pronouncing, a pledge, perchance too deep to fathom Two fingers set forth the smoking torpedo Swaddling folds enclose the letter to the target The periscope petition Only a ripple in heady waters Dispatches drowning in a sea of purgatory With a life vest to hand, time to write yet again

Championing the good cause
A letter lies upon the moonlit desk It's black ink radiant as it is bold The table lamp spits into life only buffered by the musty air The title unambiguous Marching words appear with courteous ease Their robust order craves no inspection Naked defiance is laid bare No options left unturned A cooling fan tickles the senses The critics forehead tips forward in deliberation Drops of sweat plunge like Autumnal lawyers A Coracle packed with words flows across the page The quill wavers on the final line Pronouncing, a pledge, perchance too deep to fathom Two fingers set forth the smoking torpedo Swaddling folds enclose the letter to the target The periscope petition Only a ripple in heady waters Dispatches drowning in a sea of purgatory With a life vest to hand, time to write yet again
Standing up for what you believe, no one takes notice...a robust letter might help
