Premium Member An Allegorical Cocoon Lesson: Apropos of Polling
AN ALLEGORICAL COCOON LESSON (APROPOS OF POLLING) In preparation, ants are moulding And stacking their mounds; in hives, Bees reflect collective oneness In the sweetness of their unity; And in high distant places, black Widows meticulously spin their webs, While honing hornets harden their nests:- Cocooned in political and economic darkness, Let us not be dismayed, apathetic sojourners; Remember, while caterpillars are entombed To...

Premium Member When Deferred Dreams Become Blurred Visions: Apropos of Hughes's Proverbial Question
What happens when rotten strange fruit… Hanging from trees of auction block wood Become stinking pieces of black flesh… Dried blood putrefying in murderous streets…? When crystallized tears of remorse…Laden and Loaded with explosive grief…Flow down weary Faces wrinkled by time’s trials, tribulations and Treacherousness and neglect of freedom, justice And equality, all become like inconsequential Sunned raisins and festering sores…? When visions of deferred...
