Powerless Access

by Sarah Ahmad

Chances of making sense
in the slim cabinet

Disappointed decline of the last fantasy
Narrowly revealing the shared controversy

Declined and decayed

Never increasing the fragile uncertainty
As promise of a greater power ends

Instability is the cause
of the crisis
that infuses the mind.



*Sarah Ahmad lives in Pakistan. She considers herself a struggling poet and artist as in her world where life is so fragile, not knowing if you will return alive every time you step out of the house, getting someone to acknowledge your art is a real struggle. She hopes to do some good in the world, just don't know what yet.

Sarah, you are a brave and beautiful poet. Your work is some of the
most emotionally relevant I've read recently.
