The Bliss Of Hamattan II

The morning chills, with frozen burns ...On my skin,
As hair strands reform..
Erect like soldiers armed with guns..
As the yuletide hits me with scorn..

The Chilly haze of fog now smiles ..On my face,
In white powdered plight..
The winds disrespectful, now plies..
Strong torrents, in freezing delight..

The roads now sings the songs of praise..
As buses and sleek cars now race..
To hinterlands, built with thatched roofs..
And villages, with rusted roofs..

In rustling sways, Christmas relays..
Its rays of hope, on frail mankind.
The birth of Jesus rings for few..
As many bask in randy screws..

The hymns are sung in sanctuaries..
Of different lands, in continents..
His birth created the estuaries..
Of salvation, and death to sin..

In timeliness, the Christened day..
Blooms rays of hope for the derailed..
The winds plays the chords in yon fray..
With reflections on hymnal trails.

The looney tunes of Christmas sounds..
Now speaks volumes in hearty thew..
Chickens, murdered with no delay..
Like lambs, destined for rice and stew.

With pallored grins, we eat and drink..
And paint big smiles of tenderness
The gifts are shared in loving care.
In joyous glee of righteousness

In timeless bound, these chills relay..
A time when dusts of history play..
In the sweet ruins where boundless love..
Drizzled the bliss of hamattan..

Ghostly Solitude II

Dusty sands, the brown hazy play. of particles dancing in the wild. Rest flees from the fray Of solitude, careless like a child. Feelings emerge from the ghost Wetness deprived, its right to sleep. and made to silence, a warming toast, Of friendship, in the halls of the deep. Lost in the depths of sheer insanity. sanity becomes the madness i seek I try to break free from the vanity. numbing the tyranny of cold feet As i stomp the grounds in colored hazy play, with particles ghosting in the wild. on the fields where solitude dances like a child. © Danny El. 19-2-2019

Rantings of a dying dream

So here you are, Pleading with your nightmares, Asking for its forgiveness. You had earlier castrated your thoughts, Stripping it of it's ability To produce dreams. What is left now are figments of a dying past. That has no relevance in the trends of the present. So you sit by the wayside, Begging for knowledge On the streets of ignorance. No help came. Only words... Words that eat deep, painfully, Into your bones and marrows. Depriving you of the ability to hope for tomorrow. No way to augment for the times spent in the corners of joy and bliss. you flee to the sunset. Hoping to gain comfort through the eye of the needle. It only gets worse. Your eyes bleed with desire to feel the jaws of inspiration biting through your skin. Oh, that pleasure. Yes, that intoxicating pain to feel revived again. you just can't handle the streams of revelations blowing through your mind. Your soul awakens Your eyes blink to white. You begin to see... things. In the midst of

Soulmate

The other day I wanted to see your smile in reverse. as it morphed from happiness to sadness Then play it back from that moment when you were sad, and i kissed you... and you smiled, sheepishly. I wanted to make it look like an insta-boomerang of some sort. moving back and forth, Chewing the memories with the jaws of my imaginations. I had thought at some point that what if, we could go back to when it all began... You had sat beside me in this bus headed to no destination because for me, my destination resides in you. i turned sideways and saw you reading your way into the scrolls guarding my heart. You were about to make me loose sight of perspective. So i disappeared into thin air. But who am i when thin air is the same thing that made me thin as a strand of hair because... I was almost loosing my sanity from the incessant fights to regain dominance of my perspective. You seemed like a virus, chewing and replicating yourself into the cracks within my mind, bre
