The Pinnacle Of Creativity Poem by Dr Kamran Haider Bukhari

The Pinnacle Of Creativity

Rating: 5.0


Eat my little dream
Like a forbidden fruit
And tell me
How it tastes like?
Sour, sweet, bitter or awful
Tell me in the straight and plain language
As I am not in the mood of unraveling your
Fancy lyrical metaphors
Decorated with artificiality
And irony
No more literary art
No more philosophy
Just speak to me in blunt words


You call yourself a poet
When you don’t even know the art
When you don’t even realize the obligation
Of being an oracle
The prophecies are just communicated
Without any conscious alteration
Or interpretation by lesser self
You can’t refine or slice
The revealed Reality
You just have to tell me
The real Truth
In the same monotonous tone
It came to your
Psyche

Fascinating words of self-revelation. Few will ever reach the pinnacle of creativity. This is just as well. It must, I think be a lonesome state of mind. Excellent write. Kind regards, Sandra

I think Sandra Fowler made a wise comment. I don't think I can say more about this poem, as she has said what I would say. But I'm not entirely sure I understand the poem. Excellent writing. Thank you.

:) You make me wonder what is it to eat someone's dream :) How it tastes like :) Is there a word for that kind of taste? Maybe that is why you give suggestions (sour, sweet, bitter) and you /the personage/ seem to be prepared to hear any response, if only it is true. Very well! br, one
