Sagacious words

Poetry is a deal of joy and pain and wonder, with a dash of the dictionary. ~ Khalil Gibran

Raw Compulsion


Savage, are the vacuous shouts of merit-less and blind actions,
Competitiveness from factions,which sometimes bring about,

All out death and destruction; hardened nerves of combustion-
Belie shy hopes and hidden fears, expressed in frustrated tears,

From propped national saviours and duped peasant behaviours;
The indomitable spirits often of revolutionaries must become,

The noted mutineers against grief and against rigid authoritarian beliefs,
As well as the tired mechanical thoughts which are set free by nature,

Teaching through affliction and confinement, about infinite laws of resistance;
From it all is born a stubborn insistence, which is focused on a horizon afar,

The explosions of raw compulsion and the wasted and wanton striving
Of human conditions, create the driving forces of dynamic changes.

J. Bibi
