The ArrivalA Poem by Charles KadibA purely experimental piece. Might get confusing though, so if you get lost the clue is: A B A B A B etc
Rowdier and Rowdier this oceans get
But in his house we're safe tonight There was a time when we could bet Our Future bright, we keep in sight A future glorious as a sunset But not unfazed, we keep the fight Wrapped we were in cosy blankets Courageous, we do not take flight Drawing freely from bountious junkets Our hope is sure, our rock is strong Proclaiming an era of peace and bliss His mind is pure, He's never wrong But alas! Our view a Judas' kiss Never again our life on lease Churning, agitating, pondering; 'How did we miss?' Cos from our sins we've been released And now the fierce waves descend with a hiss Now we're mightier And we're lost, forever sunk Soaring to greater heights Resting at the bottom of a river bed... © 2015 Charles Kadib |
