With Thought By Rasheed 'Sagesection' Bello



  • Thud! Tap! Screech!

    lands hope

    Metallic blood tastes good i think,

    as my heart enters my mouth,

    From the heights of despair I think,

    as I watch falling hope.



    Silence! Hum! Silence!

    This feeling oppresses

    Quiet walls close in

    suffocating me

    why this claustrophobia,

    when I stand atop a cliff?



    Boom!- Blows reason

    but insanity- ah! sweet oblivion-

    is slow to creep in

    perhaps there is hope yet

    lying at the cliff's bottom,

    perhaps

    I will jump I think

    thought, think again,

    flicker, flicker

    then the leap



    Am I dead?- Silence again

    Less oppressive, perhaps even friendly

    where is hope?

    was there really any?

    No! I think

    I never even left the cliff's face

    But I did not fall, though I leaped

    "You leaped, Yes!, then started to fly",

    the silence answers me quietly

    Yes! that must be it



    Woosh, Swish, Whirl!

    I fly to hope

    Hope is the goal, with it comes life

    I fly to hope on new wings

    the map is skectched underneath feathers

    beneath the wings

    I will die if I land short of on hope

    so I fly to hope, though I cannot read the map
