For POETS UNITED Midweek Motif ~ Zero Tolerance ~ No More ~


No more no more,no
hatred or jealousy, no
riding the red horse

we want freedom,rights
zero tolerance, senseless
 killing,forced living

no more no more, no
violence rape or shooting, strive
for peace, save the world.

No more! Yes. What a powerful poem. The phrase "riding the red horse" was surprising and is new to me. Is it a common trope where you live, or something you created?

Thank you Dr Susan Reference to the horse and color I found while looking up explanations for another prompt on violence. The reference leads to the Book of Revelation where Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are mentioned..White for conquest Red for war Black for famine and pale for Death.
