One Night Behind A Bell
Corners of flatter whispers
Slowly drizzling into bouncing hearts
a fading day —fades without ‘bobo’
Sisters are born
— through the womb of this dawn
childhood memories: torn in this morn
..
There is a girl
within two fighting crossroads
— one crossroad of chameleon colours
she listens not
to old folks: folks with no beards & hopes
..
The tree has survived the sun
In this soil — in this toil
for the Heaven’s
has foot the earth
Saving the dead & the dying: ‘Spirits’
