Too Much Peace
Write a poem inspired by or containing these words. Is there such a thing as too much peace?
Doldrums
Give me a challenge and a goal
To focus my energy against
Like the wind. My sails and mast
Will drive my empty soul.
Doldrums hate motion.
Passive pale defeat purely
Overwhelms more surely
Than roiling ocean.
So give me a fight and make me care,
A cause, a war, a calling,
For action is forestalling
The twin of too much peace—
Despair.
