For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to compare with the glory that will be revealed in us.

The Dark Hour

Love the way you incorporated (briefly) the flow and rhyme of a Poe work, perhaps in homage to the poet. But, the imagery and write itself served to keep the reader reading and discerning, identifying the true meaning. Nicely done!

\'for they are rare diadems
in the world
full of conformists and insolent men\".
It\'s time for Me.
Bundi, to showcase his brilliance.\'
Soar High oh brilliant Poet
show them hope
draped in a heart of defiance
(such an energising poem
thank you! dear Poet)

\'In the dirt mire of tribal fragments
My tribe is in power so I\'m
But we all beg for bread with tears\'
Motherland
Water to our veins, Crimson
in our tears
Teach us, heal us, guide us
surely there must be an end
how many generations
grounded in your red sands
We seek, Wisdom, Mercy and Peace
Motherland
Help us! Heed our heart\'s volition
Enough wahala
Enough loss
Enough cyclical travesties
we\'re tired
so, so tired
....
let us dream, Please!

Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors
about thee: hide thy self as it were as for a little moment, until the indignation be overpassed.

Wow! Is that how it is in Africa??

Chin up my friend, He is coming!!

African Race
L. B. Mek said:
beautiful! dear Poet
I share your desire:
\'To quench my pride and cool my feet
For I have set my face as a flint
To run this race
It\'s African race
Like Waters of River Nile
So is like my blood flowing in my dark skin
The change I desire
The visions I see\'

It\'s not imagery dear LB... It\'s the reality of imagery... I want to be the change I desire .. the influence I dream of ... the teacher I write off ... the visions I see.... The cancer here is imagery but close to reality ... I have a positive mind that nothing is impossible for them that are courageous to bring these changes .... Iam one of them

We must protect the springs of life, for if we allow them to dry then we suffer the consequences mentally, physically and spiritually. You have expressed yourself and your concerns very eloquently in this poem, we should all sit up and take notice. Good write!

This may be actual but metaphorically it is strong and speaks out to keep the springs of knowledge clean and free, to not poison the mind. Well done

Good write S.
I might be able to set this to a hymn tune, if you wish, though bit tricky with 5-line stanzas. Might be easier with an even-numbered line stanzas.
