SNAKE POEM

By
slowly silently slithering on the sand
i have my heart in my mouth at the sight
beating fast against my rib cage
peaceful, crawling on ahead of me
without care
free

paused in my track
can't move no more

admiring this brown basking beauty
tracing a recurring s on the sand
i am in awe of the brown snake
emerald eyes glinting in the morning sun

scared and enthralled
i can never man up to kill one.

Misery

By
The feeling of misery Made to believe all these happens for a reason Birth, growth and death, all mystery Pray for us, oh great deacon Sitting here, thinking, all teary Need a focus, direction, a beacon Laughter seems like a strange concept Every inch devoid of hope, joy Smile, I hold thee in contempt Floating in the sea of hatred, anger the bout Happiness, joy and love all loose meaning Laughter, smile obvious in the face of enemy To witness the downfall all they are dreaming But this is not the destiny That was promised: A life of greater things, Is assured, but achieving this requires great patience. For when the time comes The ecstasy will last forever
