Wind-Kissing-Land (Contributors; Eye and Q)A Poem by Vincent Makhathini
The gentle breeze, intertwines with the tall trees
whistle gently inviting the grains of sand to the upper sphere Breath Withstand the burning eye like the sphinx Safeguarding the 'triangles' Hold on to your soul don't bow to any Chi; that knocks Three fold yourself, be whole Religion over reason Reason above religion Lost Lost in nebulas Searching the stars for the reason to reach Seeing glimpses of heaven Lies are haven but we gate crashing the pearly gates to glare at the truth Burning the swaying trees - mind be still I steal sips of youth from the deserted oasis Hold your purity Impure impulsive imps kicking down your senses Senseless You fail to smell the floral gardens our minds portray Servings Tasteless to you this food for thought is But you swing your arms blinded by the lies Seek the truth with your hands It's sensitive to touch We stab and jab at it Hoping the pain frees you The sedating high of lies is addictive © 2015 Vincent Makhathini |
