This is Me

I was born in bustling, high-rise Camden, Apparently birth and health weren’t in tandem, My mother insisted I have a Christian name, My skin is like ten blackheads aflame. My hair is silky but used to be afro, My eyes are kind, and don’t give aggro, My physical peculiarity is quite unforeseen, The best thing about me…

Heart Hack

Unrequited love forces a sledgehammer through the heart, thrusts it in without reserve, and twists to cement its anchored position. Blood ripples out, like an untouched fountain. Yet a piece of your soul gushes out at the same time. no rhyme. Splats on the floor and stamped on. Never to be revived. Gone. But why? Yeah, try. Cover the gash but what with? A…

My heart

Here’s my heart. What’s left of it, see the remnants partially stitched together, with cheap thread, it’s fate I dread. Swaddle my heart in the palm of your hand, and let nothing but your palms touch it.

What About Me?

My Battle with Autocorrect — What a pleasure it is, to be subject to autocorrect, not underlined in crimson, not a case for ‘spellings’ direct’. Your name is pure Anglo, not chained with sinuous tone, a part of the accepted word bank, whereas mine is excluded and lone. The letters fight against each other, its meaning…
