a poem by Sarah Ahmad

Captured

The clash of failure paints the damned
a Hell that reverses the conflict
the invented long haul caught and exiled

An attack that tests the planted man
a loss of order that targets the times
leaking capture of the lamb

Pressures of heat wipe away
the pessimistic prophet.
