floating aimlessly

floating aimlessly

A Poem by Latifa
"

needing urge to feel alive once again and embrace it's beauty

"

Floating aimlessly.....

I need a sign

Like the walking dead

I'm hypnotized to fulfill the daily charts

Perplexing and shackling!

 Confusion has closed my third eye

 And the flask of reasons has dried up

With no drops of elixir peace

My soul is thirsty

 So I’m loading for the kairos

And begging to hear a saving susurrus

Author's Note

Latifa
kairos means the perfect moment when everything falls into place.
susurrus is a low soft sound, sort of whispering.

There is ebb and flow in all human endeavors. The trick is to know when to fight against it and when to go with it I think.

The pleasure was mine Latifa.
Very nice work Latina. The flow and feeling is excellent. I do have a couple of questions. First, in the last line, what is your context for using "pegging?". As it has a vulgar slang meaning, I wonder if you truly meant to use begging. Second, for the sake of flow, the line "With no drops of elixir peace" would flow better as "With no drops of peace's elixir."

I have read the line "And the flask of reasons has dried up" several time now. Grammatically it suggests you mean a vessel called the flask of reasons. If that is the intent, spot on. On the other hand, if the intent is to describe a lack of reason, it needs the singular noun and reads better as something like "And the flask of reason has dried up".

Please do not take this too critically, all the points are technical and open for debate. From the standpoint of enjoyment, it needs nothing.
