Poem Title:
Poem
Inspire me.... Even as I attempt this Iambic nonsense How can silence, Emanate from chaos: It's direct opposite? A pure contradiction of concept... Crashing, cascading....... In a metaphoric ambiance of emotions, Anger infused like an avalanche of retribution... Unstable, fluctuating and unpredictable Just like when the Centre cannot hold Shhhhhhhhhh......... There is a silent voice saying Be still............ Chaotic, disorganised, shambolic and in a condition of total disarray. Mesmerised, enthralled, spellbound or hypnotised..... Kush-in, drunk-in, high on some pills of ecstasy, while you chill in cloud nine or In a state of total mental confusion, Like when the Falcon cannot hear the Falconer Shhhhhhhhhhhh... Listen, To that silent voice saying Be still...... When things fall apart Hold the centre..... Don't allow an avalanche free flow Basalt, untamed and waxed...... Be inspired inspite of contradictions Think before you act, Ruminate before you speak Chaos, chaos is the dance hall, But the DJ maintains the tempo of the songs Chaotic is the market place Yet the trader never miss her balance Chaotic the Arena might be The gladiator is ever focused Miss the general's call on the chaotic battlefield and you are gone. Tis Iambic contradiction of sophistry, An attempt to awaken the tiny voice of reason That always question our silence while we are to speak And Our speech while we should listen. ©Chigbo S. Peter {April 2017}
