How true!
Good luck -
Excellent one here, well versed indeed!
The kind that leave one shocked and pondering.
Peace, Timothy

Very good quote. I agree 100%. Those who wait for someone else to do something often spend their life waiting instead of living. I also really like the title. Thank you so much for entering my contest and I wish you the best of luck.

Honest Entry ~
Thank you for being Brave with this *one-liner*
....and, it will be Judged just as fairly ~
I like your Topic ~
Loved your choice of grammar, and
thought process ~
To sit and ponder this, would be like telling you,
...if you want to win the POD,
write a good poem ~
...so yes...I did have to ponder this Theme a bit ~
Presentation was bland ~
Flow was perfect ~
...however, this is not Poetry,
this is a statement,
so to say you have followed all the Rules,
would be wrong ~
I hope you find more Ink next time Poet,
as I see a bit of talent in the drops you left behind ~
Bear ~

Hmmm...
not sure about this one. As it is a prewrite, you do realise new
poems written especially for the contest will be considered first, but
thank you for being honest and showing the date of writing.
My gut reaction to this is: -
If you DON'T want revolution, do it yourself.
But then I have four kids so I would think like that!
It certainly is interesting and I like the
way you have defied convention and entered a one-line piece.
How 'poetic' it is and how 'fresh' is debatable, and I
don't quite understand the title. Although maybe, just
maybe, I could sit and ponder what this throws up.
Good luck in the POD
