RESPOND TO DENNIS RHODES [ lines=30]
The poetry prompt of Dennis Rhodes
Is open call to the bards with OCD symptoms
Most of whom will swoop down over burning examples :
Fresh murder of Tyre Nicolus who was a photographer,
Ever joyful, youngest son, spiritually close to mother,
Had a tattoo in her name on his arm;
struggled hard to escape;
His tragic fate ended with
A shrilling cry,”mom”! with last breath!
He took a photo of enormous sunset
Whistling cheerfully before going back to home ;
While chased by five polices
For unlimited speed of motorbike:
[“Man proposes, God disposes” ].
Who knows the ‘photo of sunset’
would lead him to ultimate Home?
George Floyd , might occupy Rhodes’ mind at that time ……
Condemn to the country and police,
For professional failure or frailty!
Such heinus murder of innocent lives
Is an assault to basic humanity.
But not justifiable to focus on
The color of the skin of any community !
This mundane earth is eternally worshipper of power
Whether physical, psychological or spiritual, no matter!
“Eat or to be eaten” declared Darwin,
As the stronger wins over weaker.
Law-makers are also law –brokers:
Owner of power, real game players
Time and situation decides who, when,
where, will pop up the next murder.
