Adynaton It’s easier to teach Pigs hygiene, Elephants aerobics, Birds jogging lessons, And snakes posture Than make certain racists Realize they only know A rivulet’s worth of people, And that’s what invalidates Their ocean-wide evaluations Of all humanity. by Bob McNeil © 2021 ~ Adynaton is a figure of speech in the form of hyperbole taken to such extreme lengths as to insinuate a complete impossibility: "I will sooner have a beard grow in the palm of my hand than he shall get one on his cheek."

Excellent, well put! I believe that racist do travel in small crowds. Problem is they make alot of noise. Unity of love for all is my motto…
So much truth in so few words. Bravo, Bob McNeil.
Bob McNeil’s poem ‘Adynaton’ delivers a strong anti-racist message and shows the collective strength of humanity to stand together and protest against injustice.
This piece is poignant, to the point, not to mention factual. Kudos Mr. Bob McNeil on yet another great piece!
I love how short and to the point it is. Those are the ones that seem to hit the hardest. Very well said, Bob.
Pigs hygeine, elephants aerobics, birds jogging….Bob McNeil really drives home the point in “Adynaton”. Bob’s gift helps me to think on different angles. I’m a fan.
Some people need to see things from a different perspective so they can gain new insight into solving problems and treating others with respect. Great work, Bob!
Bob is a master of knowing people. He always delights
Bob has a vast knowledge of words, people and truth, and through his poetry he’s not afraid to conjure up a magician’s reality for the reader, truer than true
