PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

there are mismatched moments when

mediocrity floods the creative plain

and I am Bangladesh herself

barren, broken. and flooded

was it deep in all the left behind of

life's everyday debris

a sad, sad image of my once unsaturated self

so with borrowed bravery at my

conflicted command

the poet emerges

incandescent

equipt with but a pen and some for thought

at the ready

to wordfully sketch

the back drop to any telling event

contrast of gouged feelings

of inadequacy

or hint of prejudice

such paths all words know well

I am but the unappointed scribe

earmarked

such describer of flaws

ever to be

such a thing as

the humbled poet

with pen precariously placed

in proffered paw

attempts to incite her world

to simply think

just a little more........
