I try to make you understand But it seems I cannot force your hand You live with anger in your mind You let her bask in your space and sit in your place So that sometimes when I have you its like you're replaced With a silhouette of whom I once knew and loved now a tyrant, a serpent I barely recognise your grace. Peace of Mind in this piece of time. Yes this piece is mine. This is the vibe I never have to fake an eternal give and take, the internal giving and making. Of me. Internalised struggle in a modified reality, we were the perfect concoction of fire, earth and a body of meanderings or m ..read more

We taught you scriptures from the language of the universe We gave you numbers to measure the moon and the stars Showed you the layout of the universe in numerics But our demise by your hand is our only relic Over a thousand splendid suns from rise to dawn We taught you to master alchemy, where conciseness is spawn and reality generated simply the lessons of internal reverberations as part of the revelation as I am the very lead that turns to gold contrary to what you have told From Benjamin Benneker to the great Imhoptep, Every polymath discarded or demonised, so to accept Your forgery of his ..read more

Imagine living in the shadow of subjugation to your pigmentation of skin, Only at a cost can you glimpse true freedom Cloven from your kingdom comes your rebirth into a system within a system of laws, akin to that of implicit bondage rooted in hatred. Imagine never knowing equal opportunity or living in a society that judges a man by his melanin visibility rather than his moral virtues and life experiences. In a world of survival of the fittest, dynastic wealth defines you, its a survival of the richest. That hand that takes your humanity without humility, artfully appropriates from the fabric ..read more

Chronic Pain

Ahmaud Arbery was as recent they just clipped him for no reason. They just murder all my people bodies hanging from the ceilings- it's a given; to give extraordinary powers to just ordinary men, that's a weapon. And one of mass destruction where police learn to practice the art of mass oppression that's the lesson that they function of circulated power they abuse within their missions. You claim ignorance was the crime but it's the hate that reaps transgression Don't be surprised at my lament just need to deep the message. You hear the bodies hit cement, lifeless limbs and souls mistreated, wi ..read more

An Ode to Love

I never saw love coming I never saw you approaching see Between the bustling of life and cracks within skies Grew a mighty love shy of the heavens. Just like the moon I get lost in the stars But always find my way back to where you are. And like the sun, you make me shine through my scars. Never having known a love like this, im in awe Of who you are, of how you turn my lead to gold You must be an alchemist in how you just know to hold My heart within your clutch bound by your orbit I'm mistified. To think I was in search of happiness but it was you personified. Love, you never did wear the sa ..read more

Adequacy

Who do you call when no-one is adequate ? Who will be there when no-one else is ? It seems the only person present is one's self Like a black hole I see no-one around me. Like a lost soul mapping through the galaxy I become imbued by your frequency Struck by your potency I swim deep in your ecstasy But did you ever really know of me ? For you've left me feeling lonely Like unrecited poetry it's uncanny To have a void assigned only to you So choose us and water my fruit Of life as though there is no food For your soul but the nourishment of my roots. Alfani Ndayishimiye 24 November 2019 ..read more
