Isaac Maliya Poems

The poet has no soul
But he can fall
While in his secure sit
Into an eternal pit
...

There is light
In the receding dark night
As there emerges bright
Where everyone is right
...

It comes, it goes
It is never permanent
It is never temporary
...

Eu, quero cantar
Cantar uma musica
Musica de uma dor
Dor de amor
...

The city of hope
Where citadels face away
From the realities of 'povo'
It's our Maputo, Maputo! !
...

What difference is there?
One of love
One of money and hate
Prostitution is all.
...

Eerie, chilly, mystifying
Corridors of darkness, unending
Caveats of terror, awaiting
Silent night, terrifying!
...

Humanity is in need
Of feeding itself
Of knowing itself
Of rediscovering itself
...

I am,
As I have been,
Time it is, for your banking
While I cling to the pulse,
...

Today, I am stuck
Ideas crisscross hazily
No strands make sense
To mature into a case
...
