CLANGING ECHOES...

CATEGORY

When I’ve gone to the place

where the fathers have gone

before me and the last tribute

has been paid to my memory,

may my singing words crack

the silence with clanging echoes.

 

And may my clanging echoes

excite starving eyes and taunt

loose eardrums to awareness

and guide them to actions of

liberations yet to come;

 

And may my clanging echoes

wakeup sleeping souls suffering

the uncertainties of tyrannical rule

slobbering from political absurdities

drooling from mouths of misguided evil

dragons; evil dragons peddling false hope

to precariously lost wanderers;

 

And may my clanging echoes echo ringing

bells of freedom that can’t be un-rung;

bells of freedom ring-out the sting of death

and denying the victory of the grave.

 

Yes, poets/griots are willed to die

When the mission purpose is done;

but the ringing chords of their words

will live on: clanging echoes of truths.

Thanks, love_supreme. As you are aware, you can't unring a bell once it has been rung. ONE. Peace and Love.
