Prisoner of Poetry

...
I'm a prisoner of poetry
Chained to the curse of the verse
Locked in the labyrinth of lyrics
For my better or for worse

I'm a prisoner of poetry
Captive to words and notions
Jai...

signs of autumn

...september darkness
a somber twilight evokes ~
a slumber immured

tree leaves dance and swirl
like floating gems in the sun ~
jewels of nature

swift flight of spring birds
in migration to sa...

A little muse on our myopic views

...“Somewhere Ages and ages hence”
Past all attempts towards defence 
Of our doings we begin to see
For both our eyes, we did not see

A little is often taken for too much 
That we can’t but be im...

The Mist Upon a Stair

...When night is dressed in darkest cloak and woe replaces gloom;
When all the children are asleep, each in their separate room,
Unsettled spirits will appear immured in murky mist.
No matter what yo...

Inside

...In the padded cell of my confinement I think and feel and slide

Down a slope of reason and emotion dressed in gloves and mask

I am rebel but in times of these I learnt to follow orders and abid...

The End of the Beginning

...It began with a tiny black hole in my mind,
bit by bit it gravitated me into the void;
making me a slave to silence.
I had never seen anything more powerful,
perhaps it was a god;
a deity of dar...

The Pain of the World

...Saša Milivojev

WELTSCHMERZ ("WORLD PAIN") - THE PAIN OF THE WORLD



In this century withal
Rivers of blood still flow
Bombs echo
Children are being killed
Heads are being severed
...

Dying With the Ink and Pen

...A flame of scarlet crept in a swift diagonal across my cheeks,
Then a gentle sarcasm ruffled my anger,
They felt a melancholy monotone beat of my heart;
The world!
This time, not a mere figment o...

Remembering the Hothouse

...Remembering the Hothouse
          for our daughters

Wind skids on curves of trees,
immured in ice, seeds sleep.
Inside, I shiver.
Then, from bean fields of the mind,
coiling on propping stud...

Rhyme and Refrain

...Death, Where Are You

I bet you've met the most amazing people,
popes and queens beneath cathedral steeples,
and dust-foot maids in the hills among the petalled sepals.
                    Death...

Mortality

...Was death always this present
Or was I blind
Immured in the unseeing
Arrogance of youth?
Now I feel the tendrils
Of mortality coil 
Their unwelcome presence 
Around me everyday;
In Memorium r...

Friendship Bound

...Friendship Bound   

			One day the whole of me disappeared
			I was left alone in a shell of despair
			with but maimed memories, confined
			behind dull unbreachable walls,
			trapped by fate...

Skyscrapers

...Did you see her? I guess you didn't.  

Since then, she never went out again. She hid all herself for years inside those tall apartments and buildings. She walked through strap-like hallways and cr...

Banebury Hall

...Accurséd be the refuge of Baneberry Hall,
For those who shelter there,
Where the lingering spirits stalk the night
From depths of great despair;
And the walls they breathe as tho’ of life
From h...

I'Ve Got To Go

...I’m on my way, I’ve got to go
(the reasons why you’ll never know),
whisked away in winter’s winds, your sleeping sighs remind me.
And I’ll ramble where I please,
sometimes slipping to my knees,
