Ignorance Poems
Edmund Dorf
by Richard Johnson
Gaslight poured upon Berlin
Masking the cobbled tapestry
A smoke screen for the bourgeoisie
To blinding the rich from happenings
Sitting under dying neon
Are the local girls and whores
Who’s anger-coaxed blood is quickly mopped
By the smokey-glazed floor
I forgot to crack a smile

"A bridge that leads nowhere."
by Dylan Wu Rong
Maybe it was too huge of a dream,
a fantasy that I desired deeply upon,
poured out my heart completely,
bare and naked for all the eyes to see.
and amidst those blinking pupils,
were those of beast never seen,
monsters that did things insane.
Yet, blinded by my desire, I was blind to the truth around.
The earth stopped me from moving, but I leaped across and went,
the wind held me back, yet I fought until the end,

Let the people speak…….
by Muskan Sharma
Let people speak
Let the people speak.
You just live your life
Do what you want to do,
Don't listen to such people
Who want to bring you down
Who want to break you
Who want to destroy you
Who want to bring you down
Who want to break your confidence

Bloodline
by Olawale Owoeye
So where did you meet this man?
This unknown man in your blood
This man that dries your riotous river,
This man that mounts mountain in your mind
This remnant; this man,
This man; this remnant,
This remnant of your man....
Your father
This soleless sandal of your parent,

बोलने दे लोगों को
by Muskan Sharma
बोलने दे लोगों को
बोलने दे लोगों को ।
तू बस अपनी ज़िंदगी जी,
कर जो करना है तुझे,
ना सुन ऐसे लोगों की तू ,
जो तुझे गिराना चाहते हैं,
जो तुझे तुटता हुआ देखना चाहते हैं ,
जो तुझे ख़त्म करना चाहते हैं,
जो तेरा हौसला गिराना चाहते हैं,
जो तेरा आत्मविश्वास गिराना चाहते हैं,

When the world becomes blind
by Mario Odekerken
When the world becomes blind,
truth stands unnoticed in the open,
naked and ignored.
Eyes turn inward,
reflecting comfort,
not consequence.
The cries of the broken
are swallowed by silence,

Words Die
by C Duggan
Words die when there is nobody to speak them,
Lips no longer mouth the syllables of free thought,
speech,
human emotion.
How far will censorship go?
Take away our words,
stories,
histories.
Generations are blind to the real connection,
craving sustenance,

Ignorance
by Peter Dr Lim
You already had the best
but somehow in ignorance
you were not at all impressed
