A Nature In Me Poem by Meshack Dasco

A nature in me

how sweetie life is - but

a wonder yet to understand
lies deep-down in my heart;

how easily nerves flare up in sparks
like the blaze of a nuclear nuke,
and muscles depolarize in heat
like a febrile child afflicted by bad air.

i wish i can tread you down like a threshing hook,
i dare to be deaf over insolence and loquaciousness;
that my temperous tantrum to checkmate
and to gain control over the gear of flesh;
thro‘ the stoic brake of the spirit - by grace.
