I hadn't heard it called 'decent' guess that is as good as anything. A fight is a fight huh, so let them go at it all fours. Thanks for the reading.

Nice Septolet about not fighting physically but instead expressing your opinion with words. I like the use of the word "decently"...to make it clear you should not be mean when you fight with words.
Nice alliteration of w words in this Septolet too.

Very true we always had to settle a fight and then shake hands when we finished talking. Your poem has good description and smooth flow. Your photo compliments your poem well. Blessings Rita

Well, this is a nicely written poem and rad smoothly..fighting with words in some ways in more hurtful than just puching someone...hurtful words often leave deep wounds...but I see what you're saying for the style of the poem. God bless.

Love the artwork here. You make a good point that words are the most effective weapon. You have to be able to use your brain for that, however. You get in your 14 words. In first stanza, one wonders when who was young? Last stanza makes your point very well. You have your contrast with what was not allowed and what was the appropriate response instead of fighting. judi

This was cute, Robina! I enjoyed this one. I have never written one of these septolets before, but it looks kind of hard. I will have to try it one day and see if I can do it.

Violence does seem to be escalating which is truly a scary issue at the schools.
Well penned and great powerful lines.

Words can be extremely powerful if used correctly. They can also inflict pain just as if a real weapon was used, perhaps more so! Enjoyed your writing!
