SONNET 274
By JH Sayyar
Ignorance: the darkest side of mind,
It is not love the best dwelling place,
In image Satan teaches none to kind,
Envy and enmity: no heavenly grace,
No heavenly face like me fair and cute,
No soul that guides men here in rime,
No hand that writes truth in solitude,
No pen that writes the deeds of time,
These random thoughts give delight,
In the world of liars: truth a fair art,
My pen and passions make flight,
Will and wishes are slain in heart,
I praise for self, not your in my rime,
Lines ever, beauty decays with time!
