Blinding Darkness Poem by Rex-mayor Ubini

Blinding Darkness



Night is black
but her gloom is trivial.
There is a planet
that is blinding dark.
It is full of no firefly.
Every gap of its frowned sky
Is filled with no twinkling star,
Crowded with no sneaking moon
And clogged with no smiling sun.
The planet is deadly dark.

The deeds of men
they grope in there
few seconds after their death.
I heard about it when a bird
returned to earth with a second breath.
She preached; the world should flee from sin.
Lest they come to that fearful scene.

This is why I pant in fear.
Preacher man, don’t send me there
when I breathe my last my breath,
I want to live in a heavenly earth.

Pray for me as I purge my sins.
I am the reason the robbers rob.
I am the reason the rapist rape.
I am the reason our leaders loot.
I am the reason for every wrong
done by someone here or there;
because I refused to preach to them;
This is why I take the blame.
Preacher man please pray for me.
Before a shark may swallow me.
When I finally snuff it,
I do not want to go in there;
a dead planet of blinding darkness.
