Sitting In
Sitting In
Sitting in bent chair,
Joining a venture, –
Stimulus growing,
Courage just showing.
Grasping indulgencies:
What means “injustice”, is
Relevance ignorant –
Callousness indignant!..
Light goes in the dark:
Cryptograms of the ark
Open proudly –
Clear make rapidly.
Rapid stream in the marsh
Often falls through the rush,
“Slowsome –ness” monstrous
Legends paints “color –ous”!..
By of brush rays on vane
Master is not mundane –
Bending chair of crown
To those with daring gown!..
