Until the Day Go Dead and Shadows Flee

I will clench my pen to my heart where fair minds are slothful to reach; I will breed my psychosis to conceivable saneness, Beyond the inaptness of convincing man or anything they could teach! I will clench my pen to my heart to heal my contravened poems, Until the gauge of perceptive beat the world to my hefty tongue To put my name in writing like incises of poetry in unregimented times! I will do this and all this because I can only be me but none else, I will, “until the day go dead and shadows flee.” Until the end of time! I will hit it off from my cerebral lea to bleed my thoughts free In and out of time until the day go dead and shadows flee With unsettled fades like the concept of Elizabethan writer’s spree! I will rail kachikau to unflustered bounds, Where in prayer, peace, poetry and common grounds! We slam our knotted pates until dawn deceases down to day Where everything I wrote would stay! But someday I shall be no more to contain your tears when you cry for my withered creeds, So learn, understand and acknowledge a little bit of me! Now, before day go dead and shadows flee!
