Marianne Ross' poem, Take It Down

Marianne Ross taking it down, 8-23-2017

Marianne doesn't write with us often, because she visits from out of town, but she did last Wednesday. The prompt was to write (for about 15 minutes) in response to the question, "What would you like to take down?"  So here below is Marianne's poem without any revision, just right off the table where she sat.  Nice work.

TAKE IT DOWN

That "invasive" flower
Take it down
That ivory tower
Take it down
That fiery sermon
Take it down
Those blinding lights
Take them down
Those futile fights
Take them down

All down to level ground
