Bait! Poem by Shahzia Batool
Bait!
Staying positive!
a myth of self-deception, yes
at least for a down pulse
quite tough it is to think of
a joyous realization
out of the bleeding dreams
about that unspeakable pain
of being caught up once
right in the throat especially
when one is swimming freely
with a fearless face put on
when there's no experience on record
of ever being angled like this before,
hungry souls are always hooked by a tasty bait!
hungry souls are always hooked by a tasty bait! We must be conscious of us our choices.Temptation is the worst enemy we ever met.
A soul must never be hungry. Hungry souls are hooked. Beautiful poem.
Must not i say the soul is ever hungry which is acting like software in our body, needs only to be updated can be done through prayer worship and chanting the good verses. Hungry is the hardware of body needs to be feeded by nutritous food. Soul desires only to sublime into the universal soul.

Very nicely you said it Shahzia, but unfortunately we are to swim within so many baits being lain around us in the form juicy foods.
When heart bleeds, it is difficult to remain positive.... especially after being jolted by a terrible shock unexpected! It is when we swim freely with no fear of danger around that we are hooked...! Hungry souls are easily tempted by a tasty bait.... How many traps are lain all around us unawares! A great write!
Indeed, however fish will smarten up, that is, If they are not eaten. Hungry souls, angled, hooked and eaten. The hunter becomes the prey. Impressive, I enjoyed this write.
A thought shared and a mind unveiled! This is the first time I have read a poet referring to 'bleeding dreams' and that is quite powerful an expression. Thank you Shahzia for this share.
Hungry souls are hooked! ... a fine observation indeed... A lovely piece to fight off temptation...1 Wonderful didi!
