While we lie in wait for two
Let me sip juice from the stables of Zeus
As my Quiet Quill Quakes with stew

Intermittent , apart, d cloud curtain I pull
Stoned like d hunter
In wait of a gaint kill
Still I sip



My Quiet Quill

Take one's adversity
Learn from their misfortune
Learn from their pain
Believe in Something
Believe in yourself
Turn adversity into ambition
Now blossom into wealth.

Poetry, an organ by invisible tissues
Makes me wonder the Genesis of some issues
Perhaps, this perceived notion isn't mutual
Plagiarism, thumps maiming; far critical

Poetry, an extension of the limb
Piracy possible not i think
For my limb to your joint ludicrous it isn't
But, rather impossible to sink

Poetry, so far from flimsy words
For the feel hides openly behind
A product lying within the cords
A cord invisible but vivid even to the blind

Am so tired right now, been driving all day. But these words though triggered within, won't let me sleep, so i thought, maybe i should allow great poets; those i see not but feel closer to ponder over it. Am sure you understand how stubborn these words can be until they've been let out. Well, only those in spirit sha

Never too late?

Oh gosh, I'm near-late
So what's my fate?
Shall I then deny my muse
Or forced to onlook this truce?
But I'll pour libations to Phoenix
Bestir her ash from sloth's jinx.


I hope I have a chance of joining?
