A spirit aloft a rising tide <br />I surf up the bottomless deep of afflictions <br />With cries of poetic expressions <br />I write to keep sanity in times of frustrations <br />To attest my serenity, I word up my experiences <br />Cynical to my dramatic encounters <br />For much has been abused <br />And decency has broken down <br />Left with only a thread of morality <br />I have tried to act against despair <br />But one too many times <br />Am left in awe with what the world becomes <br />And all left, am with my faithful poems <br />saved reviews of poetic expressions <br /> <br /> (Kabanshi 2011)<br /><br />Alan Kabanshi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/poetic-expressions/
