Nothing Left To Lose


Writing to a standard,

embattled in time,

his words both sparse and dire

 

All targets in sight,

his focus most dear,

new readers to inspire

 

His argument made,

with phrases reborn,

the verdict theirs to choose

 

All time on the run,

his will to attack

—with nothing left to lose

 

(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2019)
