HUSH NOW

Hush now Divorce your ears from the earpiece Remove your eyes from their glasses Cease speaking Take the vow of silence Quieten the many thoughts of the mind Let the soul’s still small voice begin to speak Tune your ears to its beats Focus on the symphony it gives Awash your being in the peace…

TUNED TO THE SOUL’S BEAT

My ear has been tuned to the soul’s beat It’s all I can hear when I lay down my head to sleep Waking me up in the still of the night to listen to symphonies so sublime Lately, it fills like thunder cackling creeping up my spine Never stopping, always rising, whispering poetic threads down…

LOVE IN ALLEPO

GLADIATORS

Gladiators, called into battle before a congregation of spectators To fight till death on the sands of the enveloping coliseums Without mercy or fear for the opposition Ready to unite sword with sword until death puts them apart.   The winner is the man who ceased the breath of the other To defeat the enemy…

IN THE SPACE BETWEEN DEATH AND LIFE

In the space between space and death therein are we most alive In stasis when the body loses control and dominance over its being The spirit leaves its host and wanders across the lands where human fates are decided Without even known whether the gift of life will be given back to the human host…

HAVE FAITH IN GOD
