IGNITED MINDS

I read them but my prayers
couldn't be news of tomorrow

nor could the images mean
surfing channels with coffee

at the day's end can't reflect
something positive to take

pride in myself, justifying
the age or hours; just probing

the naimal existence
prove worse than animals with

smallness of mind and concerns
forgotten like news flashed in

media without vision
glorify shackles of

darkness, bluff god and humans
yet ignite minds with flickers
