Of destruction and judgment, where dark throngs,

The Forgotten Bards: Song of the Classical Minstrels

With all its cheers from caves, cottages, marble domes and temples,
When now a country honors not classical bards:
O Hugh MacDiarmid, Petrarch, Ono No Komachi, Thomas Chatterton, Robert Browning,...

before continuing your day
to bless your lucky stars
that you were born within these

which increase every day their campaign
to keep others out or to send those back

Transitions
Transitions and Contrasts: Just like the Seasons
Scorching, sweltering, drying, draining
The Candle of the Sky, now a supernova
Chirping birds cry out for drops of draught,

Looking over the ruins of my nation!

Families cry as loved ones are stolen!

Before I came into this world you carried
Me for nine gruelling months,

And innumerable kicks from within
Unmindful of your pain
