In the name of God, compassionate & merciful بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيمِ | Peace be with you السلام عليكم
Like my previous post on Muxlim Blogs, this is the first sonnet I have written. I have decided not to stay completely true to the form, but it is still a sonnet. Please read and tell me what you think in constructive feedback.
There they are, observe them with great impunity
But beware of their unrelenting curse
Lest it embroil you in flames. A disease of the heart, it bears immunity
Towards salvation, champions corruption, through empty barriers it triggers free-verse
Talking in tongues, with blind ambition their bodies walk towards the light
Naive, ignorant weaklings, their spirits seek but true darkness, a rough divide
Between all that was acceptable and that shakes the heavens, the audacity to incite!
Pure hatred they recite, rebellion exceeds logic and as experience believes me, I’ve tried
Looking through broken mirrors and claiming no guide
Existence without meaning, intentionally yielding angles
To shroud viewpoints that fuelled a worldly delusion
Alas, the resulting inferno overpowered in wrangles!
A once-white canvas, bloodied tracks from the evil of my soul
Persist in subsistence, never making life truly whole.
