Tomorrow

A thousand miles away from you 
To the tomorrow, comes an ardent blood with new face
Where heart aches for lovers and for friends,
And woeful grace
Of lustful astrayed heads.

 Tomorrow in the galiot of afflicts
Sabotaging Lord's obsolete verdicts 
Riving seraphic appends 
And waylaying them to the deads.

 Tomorrow comes the sun, colour and flush
And anguish. Now let the ale wash 
Out of the evening, away from light
Lingering the days to murk from bright
Freezing the warm streams 
And debauch our rising dreams.

 Tomorrow man will 
Grabble to harm the flesh of his true mother
Abandoning his sons with bother.

 Today I found a little shell of oyster
Closed and dead 
With no pearl in its bed.

 I witnessed the ages passing 
And declared the era to end
In a round rot velvet case.

    The wretched kind we are, even in these poetic lines it's so difficult to estimate the cost tomorrow is paying for today. Couldn't feel more anguished. Would love to see more something like this.

Silent the Monster

The clock strikes the time but you are still awake, Thinking & thinking about the day that awaits. Where you stand on the bridge in stillness & fear, For the monstrous scream that driven you here. Beneath you is a murky firth, between the two ends complain, The oceans you spun and you must sail strong. Your mind would be against to sail, But your heart should tell you to prevail. To be stronger but lighter than ever again. Hold on for the euphoric, Endured to conflate the numb prosaic. Silent the monster’s scream, To shine through the cold & dark dream. Triumph the battle over mysterious pain, Because there will be sunshine, no more rain. You can run away from the tears, Through the laughter of loved ones you must hear. You have all the right! And it is how the wounded souls bright. Cycle the storm until you drown, Push the thought of suicide away & and put the knife down. ---------------------------------------------...

Ramadan Kareem

I too dream, not with a greedy loft filled stomach, exhaustive daydreams Not like churl boss, not like rich beasts I dream like dead rivers do, of things lost,  irretrievable, I dream of the future, a history of time incalculable. All living beings by birth are free to live on Earth, But since we had a breath; caged until the cupidity's lust. Awful are our bodies and caged are our souls, Chained we dream to live and die for the caged goals. The shackled humanity, drenched in hunger, poor and death. The lousy world is starving with inanition Renunciation of human sanity Decays the boats, roots and the waning moon. The world descended to the pandemonium But God was there, The Allah, The Most Beneficent, The Most Merciful. Then God leaned over me, and in my ears whispered words of sweetness As the sea that enfold a brook That runs down to him, he enfolded me With writhe body and heartsore soul of despair Said, "Beggar woman who once had a home, Mother of drowned babies, su...

Above The Empire

Onliest man who lay hands on self and figure fingers on behalf; With the fore and middle knuckled on the cheekbone; Is the god of thoughts, with a blade on my throat? Is it most of you, but, not always me? To get right I come to you; When I'm finna interview. When I'm finna party. When I must stunt, I come to you- So sometimes it's me the Lionheart, face like stones,      Except when you are woebegone. Sometimes it's you who battles the whole hour,      But I line up the empire. No matter how dark the eyes shrink and how the skin to the brink. No matter how soft my body or how many eyes find it and peel, When I walk in destiny, I am all above the empire.
