Foretel

To foretel, this doesn't make you feel depress? well I do.

To foretel this illustrious  shadow

Life wither in time passing

Without antidote from venom,

long passed from ancestral vein.

 

This death that all will succumb

Stinging the core of the soul

Bane for those who seek cure

To foresee its face is quite depressing.

 

Death kiss, sting not in your old fashion way

Lay your lips onto mine, without much to say

The toil journey, I long proclaim

Through your lips, I knew your kiss before

                           I came.

in Hinduism, death is considered as cyclic process until our desires are fulfilled. after that we dissolve to the light, the god. free from re-birth. until then its the tiresome journey we are on. your poem reminded me of it. good write!

Wow! It certainly can scare me love, but when it can be put into this context - WOAHHHH lol
You take the punch of reality and use its aftermath through your work, excellent! xx

[Coyote Poetry]

A very interesting poem.. To foretell the future would be a two-sided coin. Being prepared and afraid of lack of time to do what must be done. I like the many strong statements in the poem. When you know the future. Leave little hope for surprises good or bad. A excellent poem. Thank you.
