Contemporary wound-scratching

Contemporary wound-scratching

A Poem by Tasi83




  
I have never received
 the redemptive pardon of criminals.
 I was forced to lick 
my stigma scars like a dog,
 until I was totally disappointed
 and totally disappointed with
 full-blown worms in 
the midst of false prophets.
 For no matter how small,
 whether it is a scar or
 a scout's scar or a car
 accident-induced study wound,
 the bone-cracking, fierce-galadic
 pain reaches to the very core
 of the soul and penetrates
 like a digestive poison.


To endure silently out of the circle,
 its fate may at any time become
 accustomed to man's vulnerability,
 and with will and patience,
 even with hand-holding dreams
 in his hands. 
It is increasingly difficult to behave
 as a human being in a world beyond the eyelids.
 It would be better to be a cowering beast,
 though forced to live,
 to tell the future on the pages
 of the codex of your existence,
 to decipher:
 how many more trials,
 how many more heart-rending
 universal disappointments
 must we endure and endure?! -


Why can't love's harmonious metamorphosis
 be the final place?
 I would like to shout the truth,
 the judgmental merciless:
 "Let us all wake up to the Real!
 Let no one be mean or envious!"
 - Let the idle moments of a yarrow-life's
 bliss be valued to the utmost
 - else an unexpected tragedy
 of fate may come at any moment.


What can one answer when one's head
 can easily go to the wall from sermons
 spouting false words?!
 No matter what is being spouted
 from megaphones or through
 the gallows of the state media.
 Our days, like the scorching grains of sand,
 are already numbered in advance.
 So let us not have unnecessary headaches.
 The universal knowledge that brings light,
 though locked up in a cage of boorishness,
 is faithfully guarding until
 the last minute a sacred ideal!
