Exiled In Thrive
Exiled In Thrive
Exiled colonizers
Are fighters so wild –
And narrow neither,
Nor barrow wide
Can stop their hopeless-
Ness on their way:
Ambiguous prowls
Breathe day after day...
Those zombies a nation
Come there to pose:
What passed not to mention
And blasts make to toss
Colonial fringes
Will cut and conform
Those bled “aborigines”
Who learn to adore…
Uprooted be semen!
Shells out from seeds! –
Not buying or selling
Shall roses and weeds
Be now in mingling
Of petals alive:
Expansion of dwindling –
Expats be in thrive!..
