A distress poem about a woman, by Israeli poet Tali, exclusively for Different Truths.
I visited
God
Today
A handful accompany me
No need
Of many
To carry a woman
To the marrying-place
To marry
Death.
I will not be satisfied
With this
Gesture
Of appreciation
For a woman
In her hour.
Now it is clear
How you waited, how
You waited
For him
And he did not come!
Sorry,
Woman
About that
Deception.

The short poetry ‘I Visited God’ by Tali is an epic-in-itself. The crispy presentation tells a tale of post-modern existence which is still passing through the paradox of struggles. The poet is successful in creating a ‘construct’ of satire to the religious dogma, social imbalance and culture of hegemony. The toxic texture of poetry evolving through the core of ‘inductive logic’ grips the reader with the paws of magical words. Looking forward to more of such iconoclast poetry from one of the vanguard poets of the post-colonial, post-imperialistic chaos of our times.
spiritual journey my love.
