Welcome.Karibu.Machiegni.

... happy you're here, finally. these random thoughts are random, the poetry is from pseudo -poets and any likeness to any human being, living or not so alive, is purely (well, mostly) coincidental. enjoy

WHEN YOU WERE HERE

When u were here
i thought you'd never disappear
i played in the sun
unknowing it was merely a turn
and that soon you'll return
to that place predestined by the tribe

Still when you were here
i thought the chase was complete
settling was'a done
and the future secured in place

but alas!

These blessings i counted too soon
should'a waited for the full moon
before dancing in the night
unknowing that soon you'll be called
to that place predestined by class

Now it is no more
like an eel
slipped through my crooked fingers
i stand by the sea shore
engulfed in trepidation 
as i whisper to your vanishing silhouette
and the scent of lost tomorrows
