Inwardly we glow…
so it’s said
I shudder
ignorance grating
like branches
on my windowpane
Hope is a fox
mesmerizes,
draws me out,
then disappears
If inwardly we glow…
then why am I so cold?

Great picture! Well, your poetry needs some more editing, flow of language etc. (professional deformation as I was an editor).

Your poem captures the current state of humanity very effectively. We can’t trust that sneaky hope, it seems.

Yes, it is disheartening, especially when one feels powerless to effect change.
