Here in Washington, DC
We deal with such things
And we speak
And we speak
Clear and loud
Speak from the heart
Speak to be heard
Speak, Speak, Speak…
(Erasure poem-Fred Roger’s testifying before Congress, 1969 – @Mejia2019)

Nice pull from the original. I found the erusure poem to be the hardest prompt during this marathon.
I agree Kriscleage. I spent almost the hour figuring out how to craft it.
