Mentality's mourning
drop on uninspired ears
While pale faced jokers
scoff at the ignorant's tears
Ballads of unity
strive to play
While being lynched
across approving praise
Intellect is now
a wilted strife
One's own judgements
edge the knife

Half of me wishes I would have done a free verse but meh, ah well. I used option 2 (the titles)

Nice job. It seems to be a poem about persecution. I enjoyed it alot. The last stanza was very good.
