This week let’s write a poem with the words explain, remark and carry in it. This is another of those prompts where I randomly choose three words from a list of the top 1000 words in the English language plus a few of my favorites. Post your poems in the comments below.
Living Poetry 
Thank you, Bart.

The wisdom of the Sirach
Written 2500 years ago
That still carry such value even today
Adamant
Remarks mined far earlier
From lives lived
with eyes open
and mind less tethered
When God was not so far away

Waste no time to explain
Save your breath from insulting remarks
Carry on a life of your own destruction
Draw a line in the sand
Here I stand

I’m having trouble with formatting the poetry in this venue. The form in which I compose the poetry is not carrying over. 🤨

She casually remarked that
Young men are getting vasectomies these days
Feminist allies who are changing the narrative
Of a woman being solely responsible for procreation
My heart ached to explain
Both partners carry half of the only human act
That approximates the divine action of the first Maker
But I couldn’t find the words
