HOW? I ASK....

How? I Ask...

How do you sow seeds
In land planted with stones?
How do you drill water in rocks I ask?
How do you milk from a mosquito?
Or expect an egg from a cow?
How? I ask?

How do you love in hate?
Or praise in ridicule?
How do you rejoice in tears?
How do you brighten in darkness?
How? I ask?

How do you sing in silence?
Or mute in a talk shop?
How do you laugh in pain?
And die in death?
Or live when surviving?
How? I ask?

How do you shorten a lonely night?
Or solely warm a cold bed?
How do you light a darkened eclipse of the sun?
How? I ask?

I ask,
How do you father dreams
When dreams are a mirage?
When the dreams in our loins are left to decompose.
How do you father a dream when sleep escaped you?
How? I ask?

How do you pride the man in you
When you can't sit in the table of men?
How do you justify the man in you
if you can't father generations?
Or talk before people if you can't before your woman?
How? I ask?

How do you kneel down in your heart
To whisper your first last prayer
Or your last first prayer
If the bitter truth
Is darkened in the brightness of your eyes?

How do you plan to be a father
When there exist a truant mother?
Or a daddy and mummy is presently absent?
Physically and in plans.
How? I ask?
