Poem Artwork

The sagely minded writer

Is he who cares nothing

Of the points of time or

The space restrictions;

His life is self-sufficient

To the end of the chapter.

 

The sagely minded writer

Asks for mostly nothing

Outside of his thoughts,

Working on day and night,

Like the factory of nonstop

Observation, development,

Research and delivering up.

 
Creation of the entire world

Boils down to the exercise

Of his overwhelmed mind:

When his mind starts to stir up,

In no time the world starts to move,

Pursuing a preemptive tactic

And becoming more practical

In continuation of its anticipations

And tending to the Infinity

Rather than turning back

To ephemeral now yesterday.

 

For this mere reason, the world

Has never been mapped out

By any special characteristics,

Neither has an end ever been

Put to it by someone from here

Or from far away there; hence,

Its entirety remains intact

By the total chaos -- the cradle

And the essence of ordering

Reigned, like in the universe,

In the overwhelmed heart

Of the sagely minded poet.

Reviewed by John Herlihy
Reviewed on May 4, 2016
We forget sometimes perhaps that the creation and maintenance of the world is a poem in and of itself, creative, spontaneous and unique, like the poem, hence, as you say, it has "never been mapped out." John

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
