Premium Member An Ebon Human Nature Perspective
Pity, we’re not on their endangered species list; Just the list of who should be least cared about:- They fight for red wolves, but still erode ebon lives; we’re endangered too:- What an abomination, In our nation, In today’s situation:- For our lives to matter, Time for us to gather, And get it all together: Pandemic is the Oppressor Syndrome; We, oppressively murdering our own:- Let us be...

The Night's Ebon
The night's ebon before sunrise, In stillness, the stars lie awake, New moon is hidden, black sky sighs, Who will terminate this dark ache? Crystal twinkles wink and partake in Aurora's sparkling surprise, A cock crows thrice, the Lord will break the night's ebon before sunrise, Nothing escapes the Maker's eyes, He knows night's anguish and will...

Shanty Town
Shanty Town The sun goes down on Shanty Town And drags all light away And not one moonbeam touches ground Though numerous are they. Not even do the eyes of owls Pervade the ebon plight Where air is foul, where stray dogs howl, And babes cry through the night....

Time of Long Shadows
Tis ere that time when shadows growing long beckon stay tarry awhile run and play Hasten not from the cool breezes nor from the waking chorus of those who would stir in the ebon hours singing to thee stay tarry awhile run and play....

He Poeticaly Sees An Ebon Eventide
Poetically sees… an ebon eventide with cascading vapors ascending, gaping over shores of ripples that thirst for redemption- mounts with founts that peak with utmost desire, reaching altitudes that make constellations cry. He stands on a lone rock with ease; for he is safeguarded- And he poetically sees his reflection in the reverie, ceasing his verses of dark syllables; shading the...

This Ebon Night
In the darkened ebon night, I shall not fret, nor feel fright- for it is a metaphor for depth, passion for the devoid of light. I find in each blackened emotion, there’s sincerity in devotion- so in each breath that I take, may there be a peaceful notion.
