Xmas Eve Poem by SylvaOnyema (SUPER.T) Ubah
Xmas Eve
All eyes kept vigil now
Disciples of the cross
Praying down
The minutes of life
Sounds of joyful bombs
Electrify the streets
Amplified lyrics
Climb the crescendo
Extravagant liquid
Swims the stomach of men
People on bent knees
Lift faces to the sky
Behold! the Holy hour is knocking
Awaiting the opening of the door
For the one
Whose sandals
Are greater than mine.
A fascinating poem, even though I did not understand it all, especially these lines: Extravagant liquid Swims the stomach of men
