Lak'wab Asis Nganai Poems
I was never lonely with my brother,
He was my twin!
As one soul we would play,
With soil and also tins
...
I see you, you little blemish
Clear and true upon my pane
I can almost taste your wish
Dear harbinger from heaven,
...
Don’t go out in the rain!
My mama used to scold,
Lest you catch pneumonia
Or something worse
...
A poet does not know depression
Only but cries when he sees a flower
You do not tell a hunchback to stoop,
That would be lowly,
...
I dream of waking up in a log house in Alaska
Up in the mountains, and this morning I’ll
Walk outside and take it all in like a
New born.
...
I see you, you little blemish
Clear and true upon my pane
I can almost taste your wish
Dear harbinger from heaven,
...
I am on my way, going home
Away from the noise and congestion
Far from air pregnant with choking fumes
Where neighbours look at each other
...
Don’t go out in the rain!
My mama used to scold
Lest you catch pneumonia
Or something worse
...
We made our karts for races
when the season met us
It carried with us happiness’
that illuminated day
...
As blank as this
Was never and will never be my wish
To immerse I in the midst of a tempest
...
The Best Poem Of Lak'wab Asis Nganai
My Friend, My Companion, My Brother (Acquainting Myself)
I was never lonely with my brother,
He was my twin!
As one soul we would play,
With soil and also tins
At night, when mama would pray,
Through slit eyes I beckoned him
So we could share my guardian angels.
Wherever he is, they are with him.
Would I forget the sun washed morning ventures?
The spring hunts. No, the battles! Bloodless,
Wonder if the butterflies shared our adventure
When they flew with, from us till breathless.
“Don’t let ‘em through you! ” But still your nature
And demeanor was faultless!
Wonder if they told their mothers
Or like us, lived the experience to their selves!
I cannot recall when you went away,
If you strayed and lost I would have known
All my paths and secrets were your own
You…….you would know the way.
Wish you were there when I learnt to whistle!
I’ll bet you must have heard, the birds did
Exciting, albeit it started as a rustle
But all in no time, became strident as a beep!
It wasn’t easy then, but I got used to it
Caused me all the melancholy,
Should I have given you what I eat?
Mama would not understand,
She wanted her kids to be all jolly
And when lonely, she would take my hand
So I never told her about you,
But I know we are one all through.
