Symbols of tyrannyA Poem by Irfan Bashir ShahOnce upon a tribal time When we dwelt on spoils and errors, Transcendent from paroxysm of spite A rector trounced and evaded, Espied extended silhouettes Through his tangerine eyes.
“I create as I speak Some unspoken legends; Turn on the dark For I will exhibit A cosmos so bright that Light will obliterate.” “As you ponder in my thoughts A serene depth of broken bonds, You will perceive but not That of which I forbid.” “Doth inherit what ye shalt If it art what ye seek.” The Fire and moon swirled in violet Till an aura the stars discerned. Motes of memories that lay moribund, Purled and transmigrated in a maelstrom. Few flashes of stupor Of an epileptic fit elfish face Buckled against the heart of waves. A torrent of thoughts echoed Through the ears of life, To bare a bedlam of beatitude. A violet volition of vain lust Had subdued within forever. “Such are dairies of teenage odyssey (Symbols of tyranny) They perish before they begin. Such was mine and so will be yours For we slumber in chaos- meekly.” “Thy scorching swirls hast tasted fire and shalt inherit what ye desire If it art what ye seek.” Fetus~ © 2013 Irfan Bashir ShahAuthor's Note
