Poetry Play #28 by PenAStory: 9:59am On Apr 09, 2016 |
https://penastory.com/2016/04/09/poetry-play-28/ Samuel Oluwatobi Olatunji and Korn K: With ears to see and eyes to listen I’m vaguely blind and unconventionally deaf S: I see things unseen And hear things unheard I’m a metaphysical man K: Metaphysical beyond this realm In a realm unseen to the human eyes S: I walk in realms I sit and commune in the gathering of ghosts K: Old ghosts, new regrets Leaving me with a ghost of a smile as I continue to walk this lonely part S: The past hunts me like wolves I watch my sanity wither daily K: Now I’m slightly mad, slightly dead Dead to the world so cold S: I fear moons For its arrows of shadows that stalk me K: Piercing me, slightly piercing me Going deeper Piercing deeper till my soul bleeds blood black And my tears fall red deep S: I cry into the arms of my bed Into eerie night of sleeplessness K: Thrust into a world of oblivion Is my sanity intact? S: “stop them! Stop them!” My screaming swallows the night I know I am out of my mind K: Out of mind, out of sight I am now a shadow of my shallow self NB: Poetry Play, a product of Artilogue in partnership with PenAStory, is a game in form of poetic dialogue for every poet on BBM. It is a game of two poets: one drops a line or more, and the other replies, flowing along until one of them gives up, or the poem gets too long. Every poem formed from this game will be published here (penastory.com) every Friday and Saturday. So poets, are you ready to play? If yes, contact Samuel via BBM: 7f5210ec Source: PenAStory www.penastory.com
