Pure Like SnowA Poem by Maryam MottahedehPure Like Snow When the light goes dim And vision grows grim When pain, misery and despair Mushroom like fungus And feed the thronged vampires from the black hole
When there is nothing left To hurry, rush and bustle out the door for When the clarity of the false cry of the wolf As all elixirs of the cloaked mad scientists Poison the air
May the promise of the paradox prove to be true As the rubble of hope And ashes of regret burn May the old mind die in intoxication And ultimate release come through
Let humanities basic goodness Shine through An open fist in complete disregard Of all the further jargon to sort out through
The only promise left But not in spite Newly discovered And tenderly precious In the heart of hearts Birth from the ashes
Pure like snow Humanities goodness Because it is so © 2012 Maryam Mottahedeh |
