The Ides of March!

The Ides of March!
(c) Shadi Shidrawi (March, 2015).

 Beware the Ides of March 
Sapientia is being hidden;
Beware the Ides of March
Humanity is being trodden;
Beware the Ides of March
Ghouls are devoureing the bitten.

 Beware the ides of March 
Beware the ides of March

 No more a soothsayer 
to warn Caesar's wife,
A Mark Anthony in every corner,
A Brutus in every mind.

 Beware...
Beware...
Beware the Ides of Maaaaaarch!

The Tempest! Audio Poem on Soundcloud (c) Shadi Shidrawi 2015 All rights reserved.

https://soundcloud.com/shadishidrawi/the-tempest-at-shadi-shidrawi The Tempest! The Tempest! © Shadi Shidrawi 2015 Torrential rains crackling the skies, On penultimate chiefs of dawn. Trenching mildness of winds beguiled, On seedless spasms of Tsunamis inside. Mellenia had tiled the elements of might Ariel breathing inside out. A tempestuous fragmented scene. A play of utmost delight. Blow winds, blow! Krakens are sleeping below! And once you look up, Dare to chin up, With skies you will collide. Rush rush rush! This century began with rash! Hording and herding... Devouring with ultimate delight... If the Bard were still alive, He would not give up, But should forever step up without strife!

Intellectual property in poetry.

Transcendent propriety clasps the first abandoned call; tranquil transmission transfers the designated role. If I were you, 'nd you were me, would we be aware of it all? Prevalent questions with their marks (?) arise. With acute aching symptoms increasing All amount to: 'what a surprise! ' And the foil of attention depleting. Trying a gig we tell small fibs And with poetical nuances in groups of resonance we make it happen like the poets  we are . keeping that flow keeping those rhymes and rhythms I am communicating with you Would you keep up with this charm? My picture is hazy I may hide it from you The world  brings us together will we ever depart? or should we question the term 'forever?' One assurance assisting assumptions One call to 'poetic a' Would always keep that assonance  cloaked in alliteration of moods swinging. ©Shadi Shidrawi
