Breathless

I can't breathe
When I sniff the aroma
Of wild wild winds
Blowing dusts and danger
Edging towards South

I can't breathe
When I smell the herds
Crawling down the hill
Up rooting cassava stems
With bloom leaves
Creeping up the sun

I can't breathe
When the bush path
Is covered in shrubs
Brushing the feet
With imprints of mud

I can't breathe
When my brothers come
Dug a deep hole
To lay me before my time

I can't breathe
When the night comes
With whispers of cymbals
Appearing like daylight
In a dark tunnel

I can't breathe
When vampires move
In stealthy steps
Of a fiendish mien...
I just can't breathe
