I leave tears behind to
Chase my generation
my blood.
How I wallow in deep fears and
tears. Swallow my pain and
press into everything I want to be.

Everything I chose not to be
When my heart alone failed
Me and could not lift pieces ...

A Bitter Soul

Alone.
Desolate.
Obsolete.
Obscured.

There's darkness in my heart
Right where my soul used to be
You can only find my eye
Lying in the coffin next to me

I lay awake in the dark off the heat
When my soul will awake
Hiding beneath

What Does Africa Look Like?

What does Africa look like?
Does it look like me?
Or am I not original?
Have I been fashioned and beautiqued

What does Africa look like?
Does it look like home?
Is it really crowded with forests,
Underground gold?

What does Africa look...
