A Deep Abyss Poem by Naveed Akram

A Deep Abyss



One has dug into the deep abyss
And unlocked a quarry for the stars
And heathens to enjoy at their last.
One shot into the under dark is finer
Than a shot into the stupor of sanity,
A bullet scratches a few survivors.
When the fond memories lie still,
A bullet of the bullets of seven men
Is buried deep in the flesh of hounds.
The war-beasts revel and burst
Like fiends from the fall and rice,
Collecting in the lottery every day.
Why have you dug yourself deep?
Inside the chasms of this marvel
Is a deep design of charity and song.
One has dug deeper than the arts
And the sciences have come last,
Finding their way with gold and jewels.
