SENTINELS

SENTINELS

Tonight

Piano is played by dancing fingers of a lady from above.

Should I sing?

Or should I fall asleep?

Music of footsteps

Are running through my silent heart—

Sentinels are ready to conquer.

Should I fight?

Or should I surrender?

Sentinels

Have come to me again and again

Asking for my permission to build a colony—

Agreement upon disagreement

And finally I stay sanely dumb;

None of choices is better.

Raindrops

Caressing my black hair in dark night tonight

Dictate symbols upon symbols through notes.

Do re mi fa so la ci do

8 and 9 along with the alphabets

I am deciphering my life.

And the sentinels are still waiting…
