Sleeping Beauty

Filed under: poetry, mphutlane wa bofelo — ABRAXAS @ 5:45 am

as the invincible tranquility

of the ocean prevails

over the rage of storms

your beauty remains awake

in the deepest of sleep

your awakened face releases

onto the world a smile

that speaks of hopeful

dreams triumphant

above haunting nightmares

every morning i find

you more accomplished

than the day before

every night by your presence

is a blissful experience

in my world there are

no worries over load-shedding

i just cannot afford to wake up

from the clutch of your thighs

into the world of failed power

& limping reality
