This haiku was inspired by Frank J. Tassone’s haikai challenge, “Justice.” I am sharing this poem with JusJoJan: Spell because I had to spell some words in order to write this post. 🙂 I am also linking to DVerse OLN. Unfortunately, I missed the live portion, but it’s okay because I was having a very good day even without that. I hope to make it next time. Tomorrow I intend to post a longer poem than one haiku.
Has justice been done?
From both sides of the divide
Liberty weeping
justice is here after
not here

Liberty will continue to weep so long as we continue to be so bitterly divided. The fanned flames of discontent must be turned to determination to communicate and negotiate.

Hopefully liberty won’t have to weep any longer 💝

Perhaps, we one day will find, that Liberty is not how we’ve been defining it. Only then will we truly inhabit it. /peace,Jason

One can only hope that the new admin can promote what the actual constitution defined as Liberty for all.
