Poet-Today | Abdulsamad Papilo | The Arts-Muse Fair
MIND POLICE
A
puppeteer of my mind you bewilder my every thought
The
good and bad you bind
And
sail to your cessation court
My
intuitions become blind
And
for your directions I sort.
A
conjurer of my emotions
I'm
so subsumed in your shadow
My
instincts are open to seductions
To
your lead I now follow
My
psyche yearning for solutions
As
my sanity is carved hollow
You
invade my delicate sentience
And
arrest my fickle conscience
My
wit is devoid of patience
It
bows to your seductive presence
Like
was drowned the Pharaoh of yore who was full of incense
Only
divinity can end for me this bleak sentence
