elemental, dense, filled with fear.
Withstand prime grace, let fall a tear,
stirring movement, steady hope that will sear.
Quality thoughts, opening, riding, near.

This speaks to me and the beauty of poetry is it always says something different to everyone who reads it. Think this is an excellent and compact use of word bank, why don't you have a shiny?

wow

your work is always thought provoking, with an air of intelligence. I've stopped trying to interpret anyone's work for it seems I think too deep and am always wrong. As Carl Sandburg said, "I write poetry that sometimes even I don't understand." One of my best friends just got one of my writes wrong ... LOL. Anyway, great job with the bank!

I love trying to "crack" complete wordbanks, it passes the time and challenges my withering follicles.

Using words of a wordbank ...
asks for a creative mind, a zesty soul, and somewhat of an obstinate and ornery spirit.
I loved your poem. It says of the mortal soul, daring to be fallible and vulnerable, yet surrendering to the beautiful dynamics of hope.
Do not be grumpy! Smile and say: Well, Poetess, you may.

Love

This is put together very well. Great use of all the words in the bank.
"Foundation's purpose remains unclear,
elemental, dense, filled with fear."
--I really like these first lines, grabbed my attention right away.
Great write and thanks for entering!
Good luck!!

Clever work my friend!

I like this.
I've never tried a word bank poem. It looks very difficult. You did a bang-up job here. I take it this about the current political situation in the states? Very apropos. Its a major thought provoker just now. Neat trick.
Return the favor?

Am I impressed? Current political situation - wish I'd thought of that, honest injun I just put the words together. Obviously I am a deeper thinker than I thought I was, am, might be.

I have never tried to write one of these. But this one makes sense. I bet it's hard to write. You did well. Thanks for sharing it.
