*out Of Eden Poem by Rehan Hyder

*out Of Eden

Rating: 5.0


Thoughts cowered
covered in
fig leaves
of words
Stripped
of their Naked Majesty

Words spoken
or begotten
By unholy
cohabitation
of paper & pen
Manifest
What was not
meant to be
uncovered
Known
is a
truncated, maimed
part of truth

Thoughts once free
from
Fig leaves
of half truth
And baptized in
Silence
Will yield
What was
really!
Meant to be told

Interesting write. The truth will out in the end? Is that the message? Grand imagery. HG: -) xx

WELL written! ....i am impressed by this one.even though you seem to be blasphemously endorsing what was deemed a grand misdemeanor on the part of man.; ->

A metaphor for the writings emitted out of Man's brain with ever new sense who so ever reads...the first stanza is quite meaningful.... Thoughts cowered covered in fig leaves of words Stripped of their Naked Majesty................thought provoking...on the birth of writing.... **Abha**

Total absence of explanation 'The ultimate truth' No need to prove No need to cover No need to pen down Meant to be told With one’s own self.
