Paths out of the tunnel - Aaron Blackie, Nigeria

Paths Out Of The Tunnel


We cried out of the howling

World of birth bang,

Plunging into

Twisted tunnel

Of journey not taken

Beforehand...


 Running, running and

Running in the

Hazy tunnel...


The eyes that will look the sun, 

Begins with the mastery

Of its rays in

Graduality... 



Step on to step,

We  staggered strangely

Onward...

Realm on to realm

We ride, ebbing onward

On smouldering

precipices...


But we see the horizons

Yearning  for,

Panting after-

The Lighthouse hazy

Before the eyes

Of our minds...


Life is hazy 

In hastiness,

So we sort things out

In fastidious gasps


For  we are but 

the shadows 

Of yesterday, 

We strive to reshape things,

Out of those

Unwelcomed  shadows,

That the present reality,

 May be Moulded

Into  future Vitality...


Eyes ... impatiently

Lifted up, makes our

Feets wobbled

Incongruently...


When things are done

By all means,

At all costs

Ruination is looming

Large, by the

Cornerstone of the

Waster's workshop...


Patience makes it

Clearer in due

Time... Its

Wipers patted the

Water hyacinth on life's

Journey into 

flawless flow

Of the ship on

The waving waterways

Bounded by the banks

Bonded for our 

Restful living...

 

Then we must

Culture patience-

Bringing her in prominence,

To  the center spread

Of our heart...


To those that seek the good

Of others, the

Good life is the flowery color

Of their prideful territories;


Where like the

Honeycomb, the honey

Dripps of incandescent

Seasons, of fluorescent

Times,  brightening

The cloudy skies on to

Better days and nights

For easeful

Progression,

For peaceful

Habitation


Until the winter

Of our exit wings

Comes, we must

Strive on to

Contain the bruised

Broken

Selves, in to

The symphony of

Harmonious whole,

Before the exchanges

Of runnings in

The twisting tunnels,

That goes on in

ceaseless 

seasons.
