On the Other Side

SEQUEL: Sebastian Jnr Ft Poet Em Em On the other side, lies Blind heart: swimming in his sweat Heading to verge of nowhere in eve To dredge his sepulchre For who knows? He said Of what rain the fountain would pour On the other side, stuck Half-closed effete eyes, Fueling by fountain of "at least", to sleep not. But to rubberneck life in reverse So tell the snake To not walk his path. This is a rock with pebbles For legs with no nails walks not Sip not with him From the gloomy tears He seeks in night.. Oh!..Sit on the other side of terrace, Is a prisoner of war: whose eyes might not catch 'morrow (2) Where chicks are entitlement to wild eagles - daily meal, and the latter are carcasses to sky hunters for fat belly Where eye-catching dreams could only come true at times the nose grunts and during every moment all bodies strike poses for clear and clean shot Yes, this very side we value sewerages over beverages open skies over thatched roofs and whenever the moon visits our lips widen their coast
