Today, I am trying a new form of poetry.
#Shardoma is a new form for me, as I have never tried to write it. Here are three of them (my first experiment) but all credit goes to Colleen’s Tuesday Poetry Challenge #Poet’s choice, which inspires “to experiment with freestyle poetry, as long as you also add a syllabic form to your poem.”
In a crowd
searching for someone
Didn’t know who!
Mute faces
wondering: why are we here?
Trapped by conditions
Narrow paths
Resounding chaos
Strange echoes
No outlet
to escape the tyranny
of time that stood still
Glow of light
A sliver of hope
for millions
Fragmented
by self-centered autocrats
to prove their power
