Let's Restore the Rational

Dear Everyone:

Here is my latest poem. It describes
the impasse between North Korea
and the United States.

LET'S RESTORE THE RATIONAL

Your rebellion seems to exist
despite nothing to rebel against
Your sounds of defiance seem empty
You hold the whole world ransom
transfixed by your rhetoric
Rhetoric and propaganda fill
the airwaves in your tiny nation
How does your populace see
through the trickery
To what end are the vigorous threats
Intimidation perhaps
We try to stay calm despite
the hoopla
One party in this never-ending
conflict needs to use reason
Could rationality be restored
to our exchange
We invite you and await
your reply


Helen.
