Sadiqullah Khan - White Nights VII More Dead than Alive

2014-11-10 2 Dailymotion

A small boy was holding a pony, <br />A small of horse of the kind and owned by the Khan, <br />We did not know whether it was a pet or to earn a living, <br />We saw a small kid riding it; the pony's mane had been washed, <br />With shampoo and water. <br /> <br />While we were walking down the street and in shadows of walls, <br />An unassuming building made of stone was the hub of treasures, <br />Distinct, colorful with loud music. <br /> <br />The ambience on the corner was like old tavern. <br />We knew what prevails is the soft soul here, <br />Laid back. <br /> <br />Drinking to the tune of silence, <br />All things here induce sleep. <br />The night is so motherly and the day is so tender. <br />I was more dead than alive, <br />With ease that I departed and the ease that I wrapped myself, <br />In warmth. <br />Would Dostoyevsky write a better account? <br />His White Nights were so heart warming. <br />I could get to the spirit of Aryan blood. <br />So ferocious and so tamed.<br /><br />Sadiqullah Khan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/white-nights-vii-more-dead-than-alive/
