Dilution

Dilution

The words flow

Uncontrollable

Waterfalls

Of honey

Cascading with power surge

Imbibing the soul

 

We live meek

Of the sunlit paths

We choose few

Darkness creed

Institutionalised pain

The way of the weak

 

The beehives

They contain our breath

Divine make

Stolen lives

They cloak their shadows in us

Our essence disrobed

Some soulless

Walk the Earth like grave

Bodies bent

Untended

Lives reverse of intended

Their hearts of the knave

 

We walk tall

While they cut our street

Winding steep

It hovers

On edges of cliffs we meet

Time immemorial

 

Shifting sands

Our daily schedule

They water

The marshes

That we may sink deep inside

Have but self to trade

 

No barter

Lives in this kingdom

The will done

The heart clean

I shelter more than I lean

My chest infinite

The mother

She favours in me

Undying

Child of hope

Her scent ambrosia’s treasures

Moves me up the slope

 

I gathered

Remnants of the self

Within skies

Under rocks

They shimmered now realigned

From light and its kin

 

The soul whole

I sewed it my way

Dilution

Unheeded

Humble scholar of her tongue

I learn from her sway
