Spiritism

deep, deep into the coven Men gathered in black red chanting of loom doom to come Spiritualism shrunk and shrieked Enchantment of idols of life Chanting rumbles of voidness and tempest and hailstones and hell Devil's advocates gathered in tears Demons gathered diplomatically Evils danced here and there Shakespeare' spirit called out poetic Lines from the endowment of poetry And, it went from marrows to veins Jackson' ghost created more music that circulated the whole moon and the stars and hell and heavens It sold out in millions and trillions. Achebe ghost stood for Africanism Lincoln's soul envoked outwardly Okigbo walked against fire of lost Senghor spirit was seen excited Flora's ghost gist of womanhood Emecheta' soul was seen around Enchantment of life arouse from within Echoes of doom circulated the air The wind roared calling on the ancestral bodies of Plato and Socrates and mysterious thought of Nancy Mitford Zeus, Ares, Hades, Artemis, Diana and Anthena's were all present. I saw freedom from Mandela' eyes The world was at a slower pace Her orbit went sluggishly and men cried in front of religious faith. More public holes and bars were created for men to kill spiritually. The kerdecism dined looking through the heart of men. then, I came back from my trance with a bleeding eyes. Yours Poetically, ©John Chizoba Vincent
