My Rhymes

Rhymes let go off my mind’s hand
And glide down  my lips
They hop on a string of wind
and migrate to the unknown spheres

My rebellious rhymes don’t want to know
What modesty means
That they shouldn’t laugh very loud in public
Where the tinkle in their voice
Can be frowned upon by cultural ethic

My rhymes can’t see the rolling eyes of good wives
Whispering rumors and calling them sluts
They  smile flirtatiously in the presence of guys
glittered their eyes with much satisfies

My rhymes always wear rainbow colors
They sprout and climb faraway fortress 
Occasionally become as red as my tongue
They make me wish I could in some way halt


The arrogant rhymes of my poems
Don’t even know how one can be better safe not to be sorry
Hold each other’s hands at dusk
And watch  bleeding hearts making love


My rhymes  so light, Still wear some down
They redeem my soul and heal my crippled shrine
I am writing them for me! My rhymes don’t seem to mind!
