Ololade Omololu Poet Light Verse

Midnight Prisoner

What is it?
That flames me with it's presence.
Like a dark horse it carries me
to places I have never been
and show me secrets hidden to me.
Like a raging messenger
and crosses the thickness of my thought,
stirrs my spirit man out of slumber,
sometimes changing my world.
What is it about the dreams of my head ?
and the visions of my bed?

Michelle Mac Donald January 19, 2009 at 4:20 AM Greetings to you! This is masterfully done, Ololade. The profound imagery, feels to me, to create a crackling atmosphere. The "dreams" and "visions" can make great companions, though they do envoke a feeling of restlessness. Wishing the best to you and your! Mikki
