This work has reached the exceptional level

Very straight forward and aggressive, in the best way. It pulls you in, you want to hear the story behind the poem, while also causing you to question your own legacy.

Good job here author. These poems are not that easy to construct.

I do have one suggestion for you however...(a small typo here: "What's said can neverbe unspoke!"

Good luck in the contest my friend. :) Bob

Hello Author, I really like your poem and I like what it says. I'm not sure you can call it a Kyrielle though. It has no rhyme scheme... none that I could find anyway... I don't think you can 'free verse' a Kyrielle.
I really do like the sentiment behind the poem though, perhaps you can rework the rhyme in time for the contest? :)

The truth be told, once you've said it you can't take it back. Especially, the way the world is today. With the internet, it might as well be caring gold because that never goes away.

I enjoyed the sentiments here but a Kyrielle is written in iambic tetrameter which is clearly missing here. A few adjustments would bring it into line for the contest, love Dolly x

This is a fine Kyrielle my friend, I taken the liberty of changing the wording of the the repeated refrain, today the language of unspoke is incorrect syntax, but I've gone for the arcane version, it sometimes makes a difference, excellent entry in this contest, good luck, blessings, Roy
Suggestion : What('s) spoke, can never be unspoke.

I've never written a Kyrielle so I'm going with this is great. And yes, when one is in positions at the top, sadly you don't really get to work out of the system for about five yearsr.

But yes one does or should know they did their best with conviction.

Best of luck to you in the voting booth. :)

You packed much wisdom into this. Your prominent phrase is a great one to remember always. Near the end of stanza 4, there is an extra 'r.' Great poem about leadership!
All the best,
Tina

This poem shows the power of words and that one should be careful of how they are used. Truth is sometimes hard to hear.
This does have the repeating line but in does not have the correct
rhyme scheme for a kyrielle.
Good luck and keep writing
