Retreat

[-PHXN- New001]

I haven't written a poem outside of school, but heres my poem about something

I'll give you a clue: Current Events.

Retreat

Forward march to board the eagle

Fly to a battle of our generation

Burn the eagle’s wings and

Scorch the eagle’s beak

Glide free to the sky

Our home, an imitation

Humanities finest lost

For so few lives peak

The nest is shaken within

Eggs breaking, lost humiliation

The mother eagle screeches

Peace in the nest, too weak

Decent is a spiral to target

Straight forward, it’s the limitation

Pull out from the fall

Abort what we should not seek
