ABDILLAH SM : POETRY - LAND OF GRIEF


land of grief

(medan duka)


the moon fractures

across crimson heavenly skies

star glittering brightly

celebrate in the land of grief

night’s desolation and isolation

dwell in spiritual stability


the world is full of angst,

melancholic voices humming from the ruins

holy verses beckoning far into the distance

but joy splinters and drops

onto this tortured land

- one memorial park


at dawn

screams erupt

splitting open skies

desecrating bedroom calm

and earth starts shaking,

a disaster, and yet through all these

a mother smiles

    a delivery of the God's gift.
    Some are welcomed, some are not.
    It's a dream come true for those angelic human.
    It's a nightmare to haunt for those demonic so called a 'human'.
    Be it a mother or a father..
    the gift from god should never be taken for granted.

    Mr Abdillah... what a well versed poem. :)
