Duality

When the west moon tilts and goes on the wane Becomes a dying streak on your windowpane Your frenzied sleepless mind breaks in roaring lust To hammer the unyielding night into powdery dust! All else but you in slumber dwell Your rebellious thoughts burn hunger’s fuel To pry out from darkness fading treasures of night Dig them intact and bring them to light! You could buy peace and live within norms Bathe in moon’s kiss stay away from storms But a bloody madness in you wreaks havoc You nurture it, allow it to run amok! Past the ebullience of night your furies vaporize Can’t hold back the transience, stay in poet’s disguise The dawn would devour it for transform you it must To conventional sanity from the garb of an iconoclast!
