MUSINGS IN THE HEART (Free verse) by daggatolar
I
Cocooned in the cave of my own underworld
I am crawling words on a hidden wall
Marrying mathematics
To poetics
Can a riddle crack a nut
How do you disappoint the match-makers and not
Abort an appointment to Adam an apple
And dear Eve is a tree of beautiful apples
And the sobbing river of tears
Lettering snags and memories of men only care
For eating, and only keen on the womanâ kin
Slitting the depth of your inner skin
Can others tell a tale of love for others
Outside the xchange of each otherâ
And not mind hurting the heart
Can all alone be purpose and no art
How can people become friends outside
The space of love
Am I still in my âshellâ or outside
Caging out love
II
Can anybody tell what is not love
Yes we all can in plenty
But then tell me what is love
Then there is pure inanity
We close up ourselves in our own world
If we share one world
Why do Mosquitoes
Have a free reign in the Ghettoes
And yet âin God we trustâ is everything
America is all power and dollar
To make life for more in Iraq is a pillar
For bombs and death is growing rich in everything
And love is becomes but the burden, the slaving
Kowtowing and craving
For work and work
Without a 7th day to rest and walk
Out life to the burning fire
In every human heart there are desires
Held aloof by rage and false taletells
This is why hell
Can live only in the human heart
Burning every other thing out of reach
And with the same burnt lips we preach
Against love for some clayheart
So we spoon up hatred and rage
Against the whole of life unmindful of age
If we donât deep into water
How can we know the whole nature of matter
And truly God is alive and living
Up above and happy and jiving
Love can hear otherwise
But who says all most be wise
And see the terrible things
Happen in the household of God
And truly God
Or is it his name happen many other things
Like every other thing love
Is not pleasure outside of pain
Who doesnât like the sun is the falling rain
Essence out life from love
So when love cries the heart
This is better than to grow a concrete jungle
Of forest untendered in the cubicle
Of leave ME alone and rust the heart
What then is a sin
Am I still not saying anything
Or still in my shell
Maybe you can tell
