Faceless ~~~



We are; the silent screamers,
thrilling sweet tears,
in the comfort of your tired ears
tingling at your feet
like a constant needle,
poking and endlessly poking
seeking succour
In the warm embrace
of your empty hearts.

In the beauty of your dreams,
we're the nightmares,
that barks you alive,
approaching with a tender gaze,
but all you see,
are many many monsters
with fangs and teeth.
your eyes is walking stick
that could guide your footsteps
and your ears are antennas
that can feel noiseless agonies

Yet, yet still. we're visible
in your very eyes!
blisters on feet
and ragged girdles
clutching on to tired legs
FACELESS we are!
the forgotten citizens
of unknown planets
foreigners In the land that births us.

for long long ago, colours abide,
on these faces forlorn!
and the clouds were pregnant,
with rain and shine
but then, the drought begun!
and we're cast away
like Lucifer's legions
and clothed in leprosy.
a sight for nebulous days!
and a smell for rotten times

For tiny squash
a glorious squirm is heard
and we're squashed away!
from our hiding places
we're exhumed,
in the quietness of our solitude
like slaves towed
for perilous waters
and unending journeys

In mono tones we calls,
for baritones are deafened
by piercing trombones
for deep down we're buried,
in cell walls and ribosome,
in many livers and kidneys!
we're FACES...
a beep in invisible places
where the mind knows not
and the soul sees not.
