POETRY: AN HIDEOUS IDENTITY

Mental Captivity is Man's favourite trap.
Favourite to the brick as flesh turns cold like cement slabs. 
His way comes Sweet as the stems of the date tree. 
A lotus bomb within but on the out, a daisy.

He is scar face,clean face,no face in one day. 
Time is unfair to our unweighted balance. 
Life is no longer a drama when we know her foreplay. 
What does the truth mount,when lies ride gallant.

This may be a weak attempt to rejuvenate a weary vein. 
But amiss my silent sobs conceiveth a teary wail. 
Thee Grace is a paralysis even the paralyzed fear to grace. 
My state of art yet smiles again without a face
