The Huffington Post carries a feature article "A Quick Guide to National Poetry Month" by John Lundberg, well worth reading, that elicited a response from picodegallo54 in the Comment Section a la poem:
my generation
they call us boomers
and we go boom
throw ourselves
on the floor
hold breath
turn blue in face
get our way
with our dollar
and our votewe don't die and refuse to get old
we hold on tight and won't let go
this land is our land
not your land
this land is our land[...]
You can read the rest of picodegallo54's poem here, near the top of the Comment Section.
I glean several layers of meaning here.. heh heh.. so kudos and a cartwheel to picodegallo54 from Poetmeister !
