The Testimony Poem by Sadiqullah Khan

The Testimony



-the testimony of what had been -
What shall come,
The thread is silk, the rope is goat's wool
Elegant is the camel's back
Clarion is the music of the caravan.
As is the Duke of the Abruzzi
Prince Luigi Amedeo, mountaineer and explorer
Cousin of the Italian King Victor Emmanuel III.
Fillip De Fillipi, the doctor (Duke's friend)
Capturing the captivating airs of valleys
Where we tend not out of horror
And cannot take a photo by an ‘auto'
Hundred megapixel of film
And an upload in the album of book face.

-on Fillipo De Fillipi expedition of Northern Himalaya, Karakorum and Chinese Turkestan
