No Time Left for Truth Unspoken



No time left for truth unspoken~
   The confetti falling is just a token

A token from The Evil One~
    To Justify the killing that he has done

He has draped the people with complacent clothes~
     As they sit silently with horrific woes
                                      
Waiting for answers, truth never to be told~
     Waiting for orders, against their foes

Murder never justified, of innocent human souls~
      Blinded by Anger, their personal roles

A Self fulfilling prophecy, of History not yet read~
      Foolish people stop, before hindsight be said

Please find another path to eliminate the evil~
       Destruction and hate breeds more upheaval



Complacent People~ Stand Up and Scream
    “NO MORE KILLING…..
STOP THIS HELL LITE DREAM”



This holds true for much of this earth we treasure~ with a strong desire from billions of compassionate humans for
                         PEACE

Peace is obtained with strength and courage
                           NOT               
Violence and destruction and greed and power

Never allow fear to control your heart.
Never allow~ HATE~  To fuel your soul.


Peace,  I say to All today and Peace for every tomorrow..
      .                 I PRAY

    Firstly, your poem "No Time Left for Truth Unspoken" is deeply profound and stirring! I love how you used your words to create vivid and emotional imagery. Your poetic voice is strong and defiant giving the reader a sense of urgency and unrest. Your usage of symbols such as the confetti and complacent clothes, which stand for distractions, is very astute and original. The repetition of "no more killing" packs a powerful punch, forecasting hope of change and action.

    In terms of improvements, some ideas could be to perhaps inject more metaphorical language and comparisons, which will further enhance your rich tapestry of words. Additionally, while the rhyme scheme you have is quite effective, you may want to consider if a different rhyme scheme might serve to add an additional layer of depth to your poem.

    From a constructive perspective, pay a bit more attention to the punctuation and capitalization. It could possibly interfere with the rhythm of the poem. Remember, each punctuation influences the cadence and understanding of the lines.

    Continue using your poetry to express thought-provoking concepts. You clearly have a talent for producing work that prompts analysis and self-reflection.
