the day the poet is the reason for the poem I (Free verse) by daggatolar
the day the poet is the reason for the poem
the day death begins then for poetry
if we had left words alone
we would like before have had no need
to heedâ¦
for Satan and Snake to commingle to communicate
woman to woe man with words
to show us our own flesh
of Apples for Adam
to frontside backside to inside
meeting of flesh frolicking and mating
all these flesh about of Malthus Geometry
Scarcing goods and hiding good
would have been no crisis, economic
and no social break down
28 june 1914, yes Gavrilo Princip
but no Serbian shot
no war, no Lenin
and then not a Stalin to discard Marx
for his own â⦠one countryâ
and the millions of missing lives
in the sandpit of Siberia
for sure there would be no record
of Black Thursday of Depression of 24 Oct. 1929
then no Hitler, no gas chamber
then there would have been no 14 may 1948
Sharon, Olmert speaking of a new home
and cutting homes of others down
neating forms by cutting names to the label
of âDirty Terroristââ¦.
artpours a head butt
to unclutch the poetry of the game
Zidane is out and the faces for France
cry the poetry of silent moans of lost
for a mere cup and then rate
the prize of a Palestine homelandâ¦
playing poems against flying bullets
and willing young ones to do on dying
for a nationality bothering land away
haba!
the day the poet is the reason for the poem
the day death begins then for poetry
