Victim Of Own Wrath Poem by Sadiqullah Khan

Victim Of Own Wrath



In definitive determinism
The crawling animal,
A worm centipede, -the other self.
A metamorphosed genius,
Cooking his own stew.
Wants to be cajoled, mother like
After victimizing his ‘bought loves’.

Mother is the supreme figure,
To wash his sins on.
His capacity to love,
His aspiring dream of power, and influence,
His holy war,
His freedom manifesto, -his curse.

Gold, riches his greed,
May either prefer, an austere demeanor,
He is one eyed,
Draws a circle, around him,
Don’t trip that.

His pride is suddenly
Waned, -the tyrant
The Machiavellian prince of vanities,
Dies the death of a dragon,
Leaving a blot on the earth’s surface,
Unwashable.

‘If I could write a note to the government...
It would be in form of words with wounds.
It would have images, paintings and songs by those who tried and died trying

...now here I go again. Following in their footsteps
hoping to be understood than heard
hoping to be known than famous’
