Myths & Fancies

Slept in yonder

The clock is central to marks

In time and being

Rarities on radio

Clasp upper lip

Clip the issue


Myths and fancies

Not in me 

Icons and blights

Fighting good fights.


Sweet as that tunnel

nexus for light.


The gesture in tow

Games throw

Points glide


Myths and fancies

Not in me 

Icons and blights

Me and the fight.


Goodnight.

Legacies

Watching that neo-emergence of humankind,

The timing to England's rail tracks,

Books stead on oaths,

Mothers, I wrote the notice

To say starved are we, Muhammad's youths,

Entreat to heckling mercy,

A return to the mighty and mythical.


Christ, I love you,

Utilize hammers to anoint the point

Muhammad sewing

mercies in legacies.

Until that angel frames our happenstances.

Without the marshes!

Baptise

The world John,

Until nature ascends.

Slept On A Book

As I witnessed afterglow

Underpinning the sky drama

The Psalms, one Quran 

shone on tears of doubt

Overdue carcasses in crashing time

the cascade of shade

and whimsy

on King David's throne

Christology's wreath

encircling Makkah 

pirouette on mercy

leaking heaven -

"traditional ecstasy".

Rash Passion

Sawing off dexterities

Sprightly living curdles

Inaction in DWP steeples

Curtly in space

Sad no passion

Pen to face

To color think

Green float

Cushion arm 

Appeal to Poe

Cry scaling

Balance wanton 

And passive.

Heatwave in England winter

Hatred gone past noon

Universally incredible to you

News in flames

Believin' smoke death

The scratch pen on the song

route again

Poor line

Sick queue

In-debt entrenched 

Discourse like Locke

Palace scholar

Sore-back coins

Critical theory

Shoot saturated

cooking oil fat

DWP in the golden capital

Blaspheme 

Hot lies

Thus, kept warm for the winter. 

- By Laila Ali Haid







Darkness into Light

Non-stop glory

Shining tears

Regret sweet forlorn

Ring of fortitude 

Down the heavenly-cast river

Celebrations for conquest

Chapter again

We come undertowing,

A nation chiming.

Glory as we turn 

into the light.

Epiphany undercurrent

Unveiled green curtain

Blessed be He,

The Owner of i
