MICHEL MARTIN, HOST:


Now we're going to get some more of your Twitter poetry submissions 1. All this month, we're inviting 2 you to send us your original poems of 140 characters or less. This week - quite a few have had what I suppose you could call political themes. Here's one from Jenny Flower from Tulsa, Okla.


JENNY FLOWER: Education for sale. Gently used, under value, no longer need, asking chump change in Oklahoma, will ship internationally.


MARTIN: Jenny told us this poem was inspired by political battles over public education funding in her state. Here's a poem by Thomas Hardigan in Vermont. He tells us he wrote it after attending a rally.


THOMAS HARDIGAN: Social justice means to me compassion 3 and dignity, showing up, giving proof, not standing 4 back, just aloof 5. Be present connect, direct.


MARTIN: Thanks, Jenny and Thomas. Remember you can check out all of the submissions. Just follow the hashtag #nprpoetry. Keep sending us your poems, and keep an eye on your Twitter feed, too, we might just tweet you back and ask you to read it on the air.
