Emancipator, Still Out There? Poem by Tajudeen Shah

Emancipator, Still Out There?

Rating: 5.0


Sharpened many a tools precious
And opened human cell-centers.
Contemplated varied fields
And found maimed Soul-Centers.
Shocked when saw maxims
Trampled and cast over sensory slums.
Varied faith lost leaders
As books today lost readers.
All got confined to Self-Centers
And in luxuries sank all mentors.
Politics polluted like sick rivers
Spreading myriad miseries to lives!
The fate of the downtrodden remains
As in legendary bondage days!
An Emancipator emerges from skies
Beyond the star-lost Voids!

A lovely poem. It made me recall the emergence of the likes of Nelson Mandela, Indira Gandhi, Abraham Lincoln, among others, great leaders that possessed the sheer capacity to inspire. Thanks for sharing.

Wow sha gracefully digraced the evil payche of mortal being..... Indeed our million years of voyage across time blotted the very true nature of innocence love and serenity..... Either have been exploited by religion or race and always been haunted by the evils indisguise..... Inspired penning....
