PREACHERS AT BROTHELS, (An Original Poetry ➕ Analysis & Literary appreciations)
Image pixabay
The eyes is but a blind man,
With no perception,
jury and executioners without exceptions.
The mind is a barn for unrealistic notions,
yet still yet, we turn home at dusk,
with heavy hearts and crumbling hope,
Unfit to fit into the knickers of tomorrow's expectations
Uhampered hymens crashes at ale houses,
leaving a dot of dirt and soot,
on their sparkling garment,
When pigs, are climbing the aisle in confession,
the world is a joke with unfunny jokers
an aberrantion mixed with tragedy and melodrama,
the egg is laying the chicken,
the sharks are eating noodles,
sitting and waiting for hailstorm of blood.
The world is an oxymoron with elated hubris,
Where men are swines and doves alike,
It's like bondages in the statue of liberty,
but we live to become ignorant with age,
Only to buy slavery with our wage,
the earth is a commerce,
Where disbelief is sold,
We are flying sunshine at noon,
but paupers with stinking lives at dirty alleys
We've slain the messenger of truth,
The tongue is a dagger with sharp scabbard,
a Sabre toothed piranha,
ready to maim.
but yet a smooth talker with diligence
wearing masks on grotesque bodies,
like dark knights at daylight
flying with ambiguous intentions

POETIC NOTES, APPRECIATIONS & ANALYSIS
Expectation is a two edged sword, is either you're gladdened or saddened at the end of it. The eyes may just be a billion pixel however even in it's most heightened ability to see it's still blind to perceptions, actualities, facts and even conspiracies present in front of it. That's why the mind has a different ability to see, with the aid of it's ability to cross seas and ocean and boundaries and yet still standing in one spot.
Mankind's abode is earth but even from the bible's referencing in the book of genesis, they've compromised this beautiful home given by the creator, redirected it's original goals tampered with vicissitude, rearranged it's original intent and in fact painted a rather sour and pathetic version of it's true purposes.
The poem narrates the filthy act of men both ordinary and in high places, it uses allusions virgin in stanza two to narrate how innocent the world use to be, until the world started becoming something rather different, the poem is rich in oxymoron and irony and it mainly uses metaphor to convey comparisms and make stances, the world has become the opposites bad people becoming good people good people becoming bad and most exhilarating, sometimes people seem something, the next moment, it's like a cloak they're wearing to mask who they really are. for more aesthetic beauty, the poem employs pun and alliteration to make the poem have a rich rhymic effect.

"Expectation a two edged sword"- so true.
Yeah it's a two edged sword I think whatever we expect, there's always two ways to it, it's either good or not so good, you get?
well you're really an ardent really, I'm so glad you enjoyed my poem
Why wouldn't I be when you keep this place entertaining with your poems, as well as the analysis that aids comprehension. Not forgetting the punch lines too, who wouldn't be an ardent 😊
Hahahaha you know I use to teach literature at a secondary some years ago, I studied mass communication because I couldn't study literature in school, still going to do a special degree in literature maybe outside the country when I have money.
OK now I understand better 😃
