Enemies Of Our Household by jim vecchio
Betrayal writing prompt entry

We were not vigilant
Lord, betrayed we have been
Enemies ransomed us
Our schools are full of sin

We have welcomed our foes

We forgave many debts
And welcomed one and all
Betrayers now answer
Disobedience’s call

History is remade
Daily with momentum
Instructors, prejudiced
Our schools full of venom

There is no place to learn
In this hate-filled tide
We lost sight of our goals
Where, Oh Lord, can we hide?



Writing Prompt
Write a poem in any form or style with Betrayal as the central theme.
