Breakaway Words Poem by Sadiqullah Khan

Instead that they are tied
endlessly
in divine recompense,
locked in lips
hid under tongue.
Or have a flow of spring
at the river
head.
Fall like from hill top.
Rain drop,
thunderous,
and behold a pin-drop silence.
Each syllable carry
a worth
a head-money
for its execution in manners
and murmurs.
Remove
the fetters.
Put the winged words
in other's mouths,
Where
they belong.
Be silent yourself for God's sake.
