somewhere in the biosphere...

Bismillah..

Somewhere in the biosphere
Lost protesters build tents with picket signs
To protect dreams of freedom
Somewhere they are doing more than dreaming
Scribbles on soil washed away with tears streaming
Yet we cannot see them
Vision impaired by our seasons of ignorance
As visions prepare for seeds of excellence
Growth embellishes knowledge
Knowledge enveloped in spiritual progress
And the beauty of the living conscious
An open heart concept
Surgery of the promise to dissect out darkness
And implant light where the heart is
Our greatest conquest is authenticity in the amidst of all this

Somewhere in the biosphere
Your victory could not polish the hardships
So innocents were tarnished
On your behalf
You raised hell before asking heaven for forgiveness
And the ones who escaped your brand of luxury are better off
For they saved their hearts from masked savagery
how many soon-to-be mothers witnessed the calamity?
covering the skin of their bellies with cold hands,
in hopes that strength would be found there and give endurance to weak bones?
A kick of mercy is all that was needed

Somewhere in the biosphere
Poetry is written backwards on windows,
For the world to read into
As people take to the streets,
Dancing to heartbeats
Hope propelling movement
As poetry and prose materialize into notes
And flood the avenues that are travelled through
Where philosophers would observe journeys
And attempt to understand their lessons
And ordinary folk are just as ordinary as the paths they are trekking
Avenues where freedom and slavery intersect at a dead end
And you must choose which to walk down,
Only to discover all the streets are named this way
With the power to set free or enslave
And intersections are frequently paved

Somewhere in the biosphere we have road maps of scriptures
An absolute truth to frame a fading picture
For it will dissolve biosphere and all
