SISYPHUS PREDICTION

SISYPHUS PREDICTION

A Poem by Tasi83










I came from the katlan-holds of the high hills,
 tempted by howling wolves,
 carrying the memories of happy consciousnesses,
 rolling invisible Sisyphus stones on eternal days,
 like one who in summer picks up a mark,
 to cast in spring, to pine in sweat!

 - I have seen a muscular ridge
 towering straight in homage,
 and the valley-yard,
 with its peaceful lure,
 will welcome me! 
All that I loved I kept to be a fuller man!

 Like the rich-sad sacrifice of gushing tears
 in the eye-stands:
 the blood-clear sincerity of pains,
 the sigh of complaint,
 I have preserved in the match-box
 of my conscience the real raging
 of emotion of storms,

The dazzling eyes of earth's stars
 did not ask my compliments nor my beauties!
 From my bombarding and all-seeing chestnut eyes
 I would have asked Humility,
 unselfishly caring kindness!
 For days on end I listened, absorbed,
 to my half-hearted pessimism,
 as a wise message from the wise Theiresias:

 "The camp of the bright-eyed still tempts me,
 surrounds me, but beware!
 The danger of your expulsion
 hangs over your head, threatens!
 "You'll be thrown away for your romance,
 your compliments, your bunches!"

 - Wherever I once started 
The unknown footsteps of my feet
 Yet the flirtatious grey winked,
 winked at me: 
I heard devastating Jericho accusations quiver,
 In the pits of my wiped-out eye-sockets,
 I felt myself annihilated
 as the curse of moments!
