A vision too bright.
Arman Hoque 1977 (Winnipeg)
A vision too bright.
A touch of pure darkness,
A memory of light.
Reverts our perception on
A vision too bright.
You can’t see into the light,
You can’t avoid darkest of night.
Metaphors swirl; creating a new world
Every un-turning is a new view unfurled.
No view to the past; that’s done and unheard;
Spoken of what’s lost, yet what’s still left disturbed.
Darkness inspires , fuels the highest climb;
Relegates our passions to a metaphor sublime;
There is no vision, without dark a bare reached peak.
Yet humility returns me to balance as we speak…
So to speak, within a few phrases,
Unwind do the stories of so many cases.
Who wields the mighty when all of it’s gone?
Through all of this sighty, the show must go on.
