TICKING IT TUCKED; TUCKING IT TALKED: by Mide Benedict

ⓒof the owner

I picked my clock
And me it picked
As I watched it move

Ticking it tucked
Tucking it talked

Little by little
Amazed I was
At the way they mealed ,
Taking over the Passover feast
Seconds gave the meal to Minutes
And Minutes to Hours
And claps fell from my amazing eyes

I tried to call these angels back for echo
But saw time laughing at me
‘Such a fool, watching how we killed the Egyptians
Not knowing he is the Passover meal
Now, offering us a knife to strike again
Fool! Fool!
Wasteful fool!'

They danced
I stared
They ticked
And tucked
And talked again.
'Fool! Fool!
Wasteful fool!'

TIED TO FREEDOM by Mide Benedict

Don’t hold me down L ike I’m in some cave Just like a bird flies Where nothing breathes light Through a hidden dark sky L ike an existence lost in inexistence, Locked up in a bottle T hat only lives every day in an every minute coffin Tightened with an unbreakable cover. Free me I said, but you brought me this! What freedom is more painful than Eye balls without sights; faith without work like To walk on a spot; Mountains tied to your legs While eyes go dark As you walk unmoving: In a place surrounded by light; What a freedom!
