Forgotten Shrine by faboadetimothy(m): 8:57am On Dec 26, 2015 |
FORGOTTEN SHRINE Behold the besieged raffia falling, The feeble walls bowing to winds And their invaluable mural fading Like wafts in the whistling wind, The contemptuous sun scornfully patters Against the god’s scurvy head, Thorns, termites, conspicuously compete With the remnants of the forgotten Rites in the choked African shrine. A host of ravens and vultures Pay regular visit to the somber shrine Perhaps the god’s flesh is ready to Defiantly devour detrimentally. We connive with the pink lips To blot His extensible existence From our altered mound memories. This alteration gathers in his back Some chameleonic shrewd neatly packed Laws to chastise the god, though He Flinches, He remorsefully stares At his blood being fed by some White hands with the unleavened bread During the imported conspired consecrations. He is stripped obnoxiously naked during the Empty clangorous creaky crusade of The chameleonic filthy fictitious Saints. Faboade Timothy |
