Notes About The Poem

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:-

 

WAITING IN LIMBO

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:-
