GREEN SHALL I BE by Mide Benedict

Upon an unflowing water
Which wave is a sickle cellar,
I shall surely be thrown,
Yet I will flow,

I will be no dry wood, drowning each day into the deep
But like a green leaf tossed upon the stream,
and yet floats atop,
with its body summoning living movement,
I shall remain, green and never to drown.
I know it shall be so,
So, throw me now, I know surely, I will be thrown:
It's life's virtue, always retold,
But I shall not drown here,
Though I will be cold,
But the fire that burns in me will withhold all;
Yes, all it will withhold.

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!
