Where Is The Way?

"Arise we say" in our quest for meaning, we brave the darkness, seeking light. In unity, we find strength, forging paths where stars guide and nature whispers. This is a poem of caution; the human brain is split into two but stands as one. Where is the way? Do you think it comes with grace?

I Fought

I fought poetry by yemi butterman
I Fought is a poem that delves into the journey of life, of inner conflicts from the conception of birth through the intense gust of wind that comes with living. It is about the love of fate, the raw, mighty cry of the soul. Trauma affects self-esteem. It is meant to inspire courage, resilience, and love.

We Know Who We Are

we know who we are
This poem traverses the path of existence from the moment of conception, a creamy dream in the womb, to life unfolding like a yolk in a shell. It speaks of life as a journey, a riddle filled with love and wonder, threading through the world in awe. Life is short but deeply felt here, a journey shaped by fate and a conscious choice of love.

A Survivor’s Melody

Survivor's melody
In this world of form, you can't be too informed. You can't read enough. A Survivor's melody is geared toward urban surrealism, the transitory sight of fate, and life challenges. This poem seeks to understand the city's rhythm, the snowy piles, the gases, the traffic lights that guide us through the uncertain paths we tread, and all the pon-de-replay of the fleeting passage of time. How long have we all come as a species?
