Email Poem | Today's Poetry

 Daydreaming  in the middle of an environmental forum
I smiled and fantasized,
Behind the blue screen.

Listening to my speech,
Tormented,
Time and again
  
I imagined tortured words,
Suffocated doves,
Pleading me
to spare them pain.

Edgy scribbling words
on discarded paper,
Recalling rosy time
and diligent campaigns.

I closed my eyes.
Dreamt walking to the podium
and yelling :

Distinguished guests,
Good morning.

Good morning,
Ladies and gentlemen.

I am a nameless
faceless man.

Hidden before a large screen.

Gigantic, velvety,
But laced I fear
with violent thorns.

I have wasted ages
Silent,
Without shabby discourses.
Patient,
Blowing my time away
in a self-imposed
infamous calaboose.

Done entertaining now.

I know
This is not a modest forum,
And apt not the time,
And irrelevant words.
 
I never claimed  
I can change your world.
 
But this,
I tell you.
 
If you seek a clean environment
Listen to me.

For I too I yearn
to see a greener world.
 
Emissions of this man's greed
like a deadly sulfur!

It must be captured.
And I made my hunting tools.

Over there,
My gadgets to reap ether
and I have countless jars
of unsoiled kinder fuels.

Harnessed from the glorious sun.
Filtered through gusty winds.

I am a nameless faceless man
and I hope you understand,

Many thanks
 
Distinguished guests,
Ladies and gentlemen.
