Behind The Wall Poem by Soran M. H
Behind The Wall
Pen on the desk
Slept for ages
Wakes up only for meals
Why not?
Glass behind it
In mistrust and luck of confidence
thirsty for a drop of water
while their friend pitcher,
has been pierced below
and the chair
which is covered in dust
has a reason for ennoblement
Ashtray on the table
wearing a mask
displays itself as a most
beautiful vase
To stay there
always they have to agree
with the picture that hung on the wall
For decades
time paused in that room
the only thing
that break the silence:
click the diplomatic bag
a dead poem jumping out of it
wilted poem!
such a dry lip of the pitcher
Outside the room
white hair of cypress
laid on the ground,
half the night has passed
Cypress still awake
saw the dew's fury
as they were combing hair of the narcissus before
But now
does not only carry away the storks nest
but becomes a river
merges into the ocean
then
Summer has to put himself
under the scorching sun
to dry his clothes
and not be delayed
for the ash ceremony
of late spring
is happening there to majority of the people who are suffering from the sequences of corruption, nepotism, the sectarian and dictatorships.. But here in this poem only one fate Certainly will wait for all, whichis a beautiful curse {in a poetic and artistic language with different symbols} on the responsible who caused and spread all of these epidemics..
This is fantastic writing- -the poem is complex, rich in imagery, has emotional impact through word choice and imagery, and layers upon layers. This is a poem that requires reading and thinking and more rereading and thinking- -the mark of an important piece of literature. 10++++++++ and onto my fav list and you go onto my fav poet list

Behind the veil! ! Only with the truth; Behind the wall! ! ! ! Full of trouble. Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
A sad reality that will never end corruption and greed has always been the trend.
I agree with Shaun Cronick, you have penned a powerful poem with latent images. A First Class poem deserves more the the maximum 5*. Poemhunter should make this poem Poem of the Day
Each and every line of this poem tickles the mind.... so discerning.
Beautiful, beautiful poem full of metaphors and embellished with crystalline images. A striking title that can fuel the mind to read this marvelous write.
Dear poet Valsa, I want to thank you for this professional comment on my poem, really your golden speech has to be written on the wall of every dictator's palaces: (The zealots of power are steeped in corruption and the immediate victims are suffering....! But its ramifications are far reaching and will spare no one) . all the best and kind regards

Atmospheric indeed Soran. Powerful and potent images are conjured up for all readers to dwell and interpret. There's are two old adage's that spring to mind... Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. And what goes around comes around. I firmly believe in both especially the latter. 10 ++ and added to my payback favs. Thanks Soran and take care.
