A Silent Poem Poem by Adorn Keketso

A poem
that doesn't
speak is
but an insult
it provokes neither
emotions nor actions
it defies literary structures
and goes beyond
rational reasoning
it's a mystical force that
separates love from hatred
a spiritual silence that
speak to the soul with an undecipherable language that transcend human comprehension
for a silent poem is
but banal and blur

A poem
that doesn't
have a tongue is
but mute

it speaks in foreign tongues
and cannot articulate across
the authors feelings
and mark down his pains in a clear unequivocal immaculate tone
it's only a reflection
of light
and circles of darkness in the reader's mind
gagged by its own
meaning and twisted
interpretations
a silent poem grants the silence of its warmth in the reader's hearts
it makes its silence speaks louder than its context
and its message stronger than its silence
for it'll forever live your hearts
but a silent poem is
an insult
only understood
by readers who don't
wag their tongues when reading
for the silent get inculcated in their hearts
speaks to the soul
and manipulate its trust

a silent poem is an insult
it never makes it clear where it start or end
for its silence blows and darts with the winds in the empty corners of your mind
transcend ordinary brains
appeal only to the gods
it applies mystical structures
in silently painting the divine face with silent words

a silent poem is an insult
it withdraws pressure
from a painful wound
deep in the soul
quench the thirst of your spirit
and feed your brains nothing but silence
the silence in this poem
can't be heard
for it is silent
and go beyond metaphysics and
traditional philosophy!

A silent poem is really an insult
it's neither prose
nor poetic and doesn't appeal to the aesthetic orientation
its expressionism is silent
only heard by the divination
who seek to understand
spiritually its silence
its communication is the language of soul
it overlooks allegory
and metaphors
for a silent poem is an insults to experts
the poetic veterans
it gives them a silent fatal blow on the mind!
