BLUR OF MOTION



BLUR OF MOTION

Paloma García on Twitter: "Uncertainty ... Gbenro Sholanke ...

When the blur of motion,
Will cease,
Only the graveyard of suppressed emotion,
Will be left to appease.

At whom will you so hatefully scorn,
When you realize all are forlorn,
Shadows will henceforth exist,
Where drizzled joy’s heavenly mist.

Existence will be as empty as a dirge,
With no soul left to purge,
Of its sins,
All that’s left will be pins.

Pins of the forgotten “what if’s”,
So foolishly trying to scour clean,
All the past tiff’s,
Trying to regain the fractured “has been”

Fractured pieces of the invincible mind,
Fallen from its Herculean might,
Some left behind,
In uncertainty’s darkest night.

A night so dark and deep,
A void so difficult to fill,
Gently lulling into the deepest sleep,
Even past the mighty mind’s will.

Change of winds

  As the gray skies deepened, Heavens loudly burst opened, With a vigorous clap of thunder, Streaks of lightning making all wonder.   Was it the greens of monsoon? That received the pouring boon. Falling on the lush green floor, But it was in fact, the season of parched moors.   What a deluge it was, Beyond any reason or cause, Reprieve from the sweltering heat, Or kicking the farmer, already beat.   One side of the world, it was a day of selfies, With piping coffees or monogrammed cups of slurpies, The other side, it was a great bane, Months of toiling drowned in vain.   Rows and columns of well-ordered crops, So nimbly did they flop, As water flowed sans barrier, Rolling tears mimicking a river.   Who is the culprit? Aggravating nature’s hissy fits, For burning through coal pits, Killing animals for fur lined kits.   This cruel change of winds, Result of the burning sins, Merciless murder ...

Breathe

  I breathe now, To live and laugh tomorrow, To fulfil hopes and goals, of several loved souls. Each breath makes me wonder, How do they stay asunder? From loved souls who have them in a hold, Just to get someone a breath so bold. Their breaths are muffled, As they keep up their hustle, Not stopping to breathe, Eternally resting with just a condolence wreath?

The Double Tap Conundrum

The Double Tap Conundrum The entire millennial generation is hooked onto the social media. This is not bad or good either. It’s a personal choice. The need for social validation and being a pack goes back to the times when humans were hunting and staying in groups. Times changed drastically, we all started hunting for food using supermarkets and our arenas of food became the wonderfully decorated aisles and the sale boards. Our clothing issues changed from covering for protection to covering for self-confidence and happiness because who are we kidding, everyone feels confident when dressed properly and looking dapper. Our basic needs are still the same, with the addition of the internet and the accessories and additions that come along with it. Social validation is one of the most important catalysts of human development. If a person feels like the society like and confirms him or her…then that person feels satisfied in being. When a person, let’s say Jane, posts a p...
