Poetry; Primus Priory

When we as human being change positions of factualness and employ misappropriation and expect life to be normal, you surprise the generation. You cannot place your left arm or leg on your right leg and walk comfortably. Stop dreaming is perhaps the message that is being relayed to us in the following poem. Sample it for fun and growth as well. The lessons are very simple and clear. Enjoy

My man is gone away to serve 
                                         the master
                                         his chief
At the set of the sun 
                                        the pigeons
                                        and wagtails
                                        are homing
lurking along the cold side 
The black wall of euphorbia
                                        Concrete
Down the valley I hear
                                        the shepherds call
 The wolves have hawled
                                         from the hillside
                                         caves
The half-potent old men 
                                         virility sailed away with time
                                          minutes turned into years
The worn out men
                                       sing ruthless epics
                                       from beer party gospels;
                                       The golden flutes
I do not know, I do not know
I cannot tell, And I cannot tell
                                      When my man will come
                                       When my man will come
I must live these days alone
For my man must serve the chief
The weaver bird should rest in her nest
And stir not the heat- burnt hope
 For the fog is still absent


Let peasants cry into the dusk
The fields have partial answers
Children endlessly rock in the cradles
 Shall I go to find my mate?
Hunger shall never let me rest
The hours delve into years
Soon I shall have no tears to shed
No laughter to burst
 I will not know 
When first it started.


Don't wait for matters to exacerbate to that extend. Get your priorities right on the onset. The fact that you are human doesn't necessarily always have to end in misery and embroilment as it is the case in our real life. If you are the head play your part and stop messing others because of your indecisiveness.           

See you soon
