Issue 282, Friday 26 October 2012 - 10 Dhu al-Hijjah 1433 Poets' Corner: From reality to mirage Far off clatter of voices and distant sounds Footsteps vibrating on this very same ground A foray of whisper and tinkling laughter Often echoed by crying after Successive images race past my eyes From happy beginnings to sad goodbyes Visual flashes reflected onwards through time Of confusing detail made sublime Each frame has a story to tell Guarded secrets now contained within a shell Reality for now reduced to a mirage Forgotten lives no longer with entourage Real lives condensed in history Reasons why remain a mystery By Rashidah Butt |
