CONVERGE

October 25 2017 , Written by Ofem Ubi Published on #poetry

Come

O ye faithfuls

Wordsmiths of the 21st

Come I say

But not alone

Gather around with your inking swords

Let us shed together

Let us spill more ink than blood

Scar more sheets than skin

 

Come

O ye speech stitchers

Let us hem the falling edges of our fading humanity together

Let our tongues speak life and bury death

Let us rhyme and reason

Search and deepen

For our horizons we widen

 

O come,

Can’t you see how the sun shivers in fear

Let us cover it in a blanket of warmth

Remind it of it’s glory days

Tell it that it needs to shine again

Fierce and bolder than ever

To atleast give hope to those who have misplaced theirs

Give light to those with silhouette directions

Come,

Let us baptize the world in a pool of poetry

Let these letters be liquid

Let it soak deep to the roots of every breath

As we speak in tongues

The type only we can relate to

 

Come,

Let us feast and make merry

For this si not the last supper, this is reinforcement

As we break bread and drink solemn wine

For here there’s no false kiss

Here there’s no boss or leader

We are disciples unto each other

As we marry our dreams and ideas together

Till death seals it better and stonger

 

Come,

Let us plant while it’s time to do so

Let our words germinate into sprouting branches

Let it touch other seeds

Until our descendats harvest of the fruits sown
