THE BASKET WEEPERS by Mide Benedict

I see them as they weep in sacred baskets
For the thirsty gods to drink
But the gods knew why they ordered baskets
As the bearer of sacrificial liquid emotions

They knew....
But the people have kept on weeping and weeping
Into the basket of the gods
And the gods have kept on watching and watching
To know which will first be sucked into the soil:
Those who weep or their tears, dropping into the baskets
Like speeding trains on a forever railway

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!
