The Muse

in #poetry7 years ago

"The Muse"

the clouds are gathering
angry dusts chase
the seven hurricanes
that scatter them in all
ethereal directions

vulcanoes are erupting
and earthquakes topple
the human achievements
of millenia past

do you believe in soothsaying?
listen to the son of the Muse
sing the songs of the season
inspired by his father's art

the lions are restless
in their densely populated dens
the heat of sanity boils hot
the pot of their calamity

the cubs, born in and initiated
into evil, are willing arrows
in the scheme of final conspiracy
to dethrone Integrity so that
Compromise can ascend the throne

three arrows in one day
with all the tactics of gaslighting
— a weapon deployed by cowards
with no face.

the year next is for reckoning
Evil rejoices today
Integrity will succeed tomorrow
and Compromise will be gone forever

beware of Corruption
in the garbs of Change!

when the three man mafia
come together, the thunder
of innocence will scatter them

the Muse says so
the Muse says so
the Muse says so

let the rain that follows thunder pour,
let the thunder that follows lightening strike,
let the lightening that follows gloomy clouds flash,
let the son of the Muse hide in these elements
until the storm and its debris are past. . .

Great poem. Good to see you back writing again.

Many thanks, @damianjayclay.
It feels good to be back writing on this platform but it feels better to know that I am being read by a poetry maestro.
