Devils' Midnight Saga Poem by Jayatissa K. Liyanage
Devils' Midnight Saga
Defense base's glory, ablaze
gleaning in starry display
erected a giant smoky column
within a fire work flaunt
Shattering structure to mere rubble
Ejecting weaponry in missile trajectories
Reduced everything to bits ‘n pieces
Forced people to flee in all odd directions
Infants, kids, youth, grown up ‘n aged
Bewildered baffled, and mystified
What, why, when ‘n how, knew nothing
Simply took to their darling feet
While fireflies encroached night sky
metallic remnant fall looked celestial
few were hunting for fresh pictures
getting as close as possible for prestige
The memory of a great catastrophe re played in all its horror and mayhem! Great write!
Devil's midnight Saga is a sad poem that speaks of not just of accidents or disaster alone but of a terrifying episode. When you see big structures crumbling down in fire, it is a very heart rending sight. The poem also focuses on the insensitivity of human nature, the people who are bent on making it a national news than compassion for the people or the terrible situation. Very well done, Jayatissa. A full vote for this poem.
