Anakin Zeniest Poem by Nate Tulay

Anakin Zeniest

Rating: 5.0


Who will befriend me an infinite years from now,
if I were to descend from heaven with no
knowledge and memories of my past lives once
again? Will I be cast aside, and sentenced
to death by poverty, or will I be remembered
and honored in spite of my skin tone and family
name? Friends, who will appreciate a dark skinned
boy an infinite years from now, if I were to
be reborn into poverty with even more skill sets
and gifts chained within my consciousness? ?
Will I again be labeled as an ancient and schizophrenic
warlord, or will I finally be embraced
and uplifted for all of the wrong reasons?

Who knew? ? Not me, Bri. ;) 'The name Anakin is primarily a male name of American origin that means Warrior. Anakin is a name created by filmmaker George Lucas for the STAR WARS film franchise for his main character'

Anakin Zeniest... as in, the most self-aware being in creation has a natural Anakin Skywalker complex by genealogical design... maybe... the theme of the poem.... too sane Bri... lol

Beautiful poem. Enjoyed the way the theme got developed and it's close-to-heart narrative. And the conversation between Bri and the poet was quite informative. Thanks

I have 'trouble' understanding all of the poem, besides not knowing if I even saw all of the lines (not the poet's fault, I'm sure) .

The poems is about some humans being reborn without any memories of their past lives... and as a result having to rise from poverty and doubts... and from the negative stigmas of schizophrenia too...

line 1: maybe 'in' instead of 'an'? 'will I be casted aside' I'd use 'cast aside' (not casted) I don't know what line it's in because computer gives me trouble recently. ! ;)
