Joy and Sadness

Joy and Sadness

https://soundcloud.com/shadishidrawi/joy-and-sadness-at-shadi

A cadence 

of joy and sadness
ultimately taking grip 

on a groom

forlorn
on a bride 
in town
villager like.

on a school of dolphins

gliding over tuna
for frenzied consumption 
one encaptured 
in those nets
of a trawler and dragger

it is that mix

of tricks
on the stage
underneath
the fire and hidden rabbits
with so many metalic chains

it is a morbid fascination 

with what makes it harmful
makes it wonderful 
and the 
wondering 
medic
has given up

it is when

you meet the spirit 
or sense the presencs
or hear the voice
that dear one
you've just 
or have had
lost!

a cadence of joy

a cadence of sadness
is the identity 
of this rhyme.
