Meridith, the muse that thrives in the
gardens of poetry
Calls away Angst, an old poet master, from
slipping into silence
As he meditates into the deep seas of ubiquity.
“Speak poet - hold not your heart in
reticence
For the waltzing shadows of time frighten
the white rabbit
Back into its black hole of imaginary
nonsense!”
“I will speak when the common guard of
habit
Ceases to hail the weird cats of
uniformity
And all haikus taken explain the meanings
of the Abbot.
For all questions are fashioned in the
reply of simplicity;
And therefore, we all are sentenced to our
words,
To our songs. Remember, April’s poetry is
not for the sake of complexity.
Instead, verse is within the implications
of the red roses or the bloody swords!
All submissions are Moloch’s choice to either
embrangle or to liberate
From utter irrelevancy or held to be supreme
lords.”
After some weigh, Meredith mused whether
the poet would abnegate:
“Poet, of old, would you rather slip away
in a silent refrain
Rather than answer the paroxysms of
rejection and love’s desquamate?”
“’Tis not my journey to find joy nor to
abstain from pain.
No, indeed, it is because of my fascination
with the fulcrum’s sway
Between refinement of pleasures and the
perils of fame
My songs are lyrical rhymes; my morphemes
formed in a simple way
Explaining how the kinesthetics of the
mind capture the universe
When it speaks to the mind – it is a desideratum’s
journey, every day.
