Crush the Hell on Earth: A Prayer in 10 Parts! (3)

"...Denial and acceptance!.."

We Still Dream!

5.

I had a dream last night…
How many fire birds
Spewed fire?
How many did turn
Into fire balls?

6.

Three? Four?
Or
As they said ‘six’!
::::::::::
Denial and acceptance!
Do we ‘believe’ the government?
Are we not put on the
‘Firing line’
Too???!!!



Author’s note: These’re 20 short prose poems grouped into 10 pairs, with each pair while depicting the ‘darkness’ around us, is readying us, as if, for a brighter future and praying for it’s arrival!
