Poetics Aside Prompt: Left/right Poem
We are not so different
Whether fearful or brave
Life is a left-foot-right-foot journey
From the cradle to the grave
No matter where on earth we be
Whether master or slave
Life is a left-foot-right-foot journey
From the cradle to the grave
Humanity has much in common
Not measured by the things we have
But by this left-foot-right-foot journey
From the cradle to the grave
We are fellow-travelers
So let’s share what mercy gave
In our left-foot-right-foot journey
From the cradle to the grave
…for we are not so different
In this path of life
we brave
On a left-foot-right-foot journey
From the cradle to the grave
