NaPoWriMo 2025 Day 22: Defense

Posted on April 22, 2025May 18, 2025 By Roynald MacRoss

Defense

Safer to stay in,
safer to stay put,
safest to lurk and hide
until nobody looks
because no one recalls
there’s such a thing as me.
I can live my life
in snug obscurity.
When God demands accounts,
I’ll say in my defense
that I never harmed a soul
or made a difference.
