Brimstone and Treacle

Adjust the seat in the cockpit,
your pulpit
remind us all that you are flying this plane

Robust, the way you tirade,
your charade
propel us to binge on fervor and linger
insane

We must dangle on principle,
you're principal
speak that honey-tongued lancet to our
pain

Til we waken in epiphany,
your periphery
exorcise the fear that holds us in
disdain

The light of truth thus imbues,
your misuse
affectations no longer able to
retain

Freedom releases us from penury,
your worry
only the grand love of life will
remain

Exceptional write, Brian!!

"Old thinking is dying."

Though, the way you versed and composed this piece, you've used the rod to 'unspoil' the child. Meaning, it is comparable to Masters of Past in voice, character, lilt, tone and flow, chastising 'his own Time-children'. Um. I hope you got that, in ka fashion. :)

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!
