3 Word Wednesday: Disarray. Rabble. Validate. This week I'm departing from tradition: instead of a haiku, a triolet.
How can you validate this rabble
that throws society in disarray
like shaking up a set of Scrabble?
How can you validate this rabble,
this so-called democratic Babel
that took my privileges away?
How can you validate this rabble
that throws society in disarray?

Wonderfully penned.
a true reflection.
Love the title. But in this most recent election, I think it was not the rabble that won but the higher hopes we have for ourselves.
The poem has a Seussian flavor, and what I love about it is I can hear the speaker's tone in it. Well done.
Indeed. Strong words and powerful thoughts.
Wonderful triolet.
Very effectively penned and enjoyably read; one doesn't see many of these crafted these days, and you have crafted well.
I like the shift in emphasis, and hence meaning in the last repetition of the refrain. Of course, that is required in a triolet, but excellent jobs deserve praise.
beautifully spoken... cannot help but to think of that song... freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose....janis joplin sang...
Very well done...it has a wonderful rhythm.
