WAITING IN LIMBO

Sitting on the muddy banks

Of faded realities,

Lingering in the spaces of time,

Lost souls struggle:

Seeking another Dreamer.

Powering pawn brokers,

Tighten their mogering grasp

Beyond the setting sun;

Leaving frailed victories festering

And waning in winds of change:-

White opiates coagulate,

Flowing black dreams

Of mesmerized minds;

Oblivious to fading freedoms

Chained and rotting away:-

As time and life sag on,

Let’s not be as a drooping bosom

Sagging due to incised-bleeding;

Rather, let’s be as pregnant wombs

Breaking waters of liberating justice:-

Indeed, let’s scream renewed life,

Nourished keloid-ancestral-navels,

Waxed and hardened by sarcasm

Against the trumping-musky rhetoric

Streaming against democratic equity:-
