epidemic of the worst kind; humanity's negligence
can we not see the shadows we cast on the world?
looking down but never actually receiving
ignoring our toxic imprints
pretending as if we aren't destructive
striding to the next place like a parabolic ghost
evidence or not, our shadows are right behind us

This is really quite the description of a shadow or all types.
Oooo, parabolic ghost, I really loved that! Awesomeeee Acrostic!
Epidemic of the worst kind..I've written a few in this vein. It's disheartening to witness every day. You wrote this so powerfully :)
Fantastic poem! Good job!
This one speaks so true to my heart. Well written, Brin.
Oooooooh. Are we having a clever-off here, Brin? Lol. Sorry...being silly. But this is brilliant. Love the term parabolic ghost...:)
