Advice To Candidates Poem by Steven Federle

Advice To Candidates

Rating: 5.0


Everyone wants to
be heard! Speak louder than the
rest, fill raucous rooms

with your rancorous
thunder, flail all resistance
to the ground. Your lies

will win the night; but
in the clear morning, be still.
Listen as small birds

rest lightly on sway-
ing branches. With piercing song
they paint a new day.
