I landed down
I dropped down to
My native soil
A tradition met
...
Horrifying sounds of beating drums
Terrifying tunes of dirges
Fear-provoking songs of elegy
Wails of mothers; screams of children
...
I have no friend dear diary
You remain my only companion
Tales of my tragedy, you carefully conceal
A most loyal comrade, heed these words
...
Fusty bread, larva infested water
Threadbare clothes, I dreaded morning
For it spells rumbling of my Pot
With no antidote to reverse that body butchery virus
...
I had joined them, those in uniform
Chanting the alphabets in key notes
Full of excitement to learn something new
Away from the fire that burnt my skin
...
Shriek of pain
A famous terror
Paralyzing oneself
The fear of three
...
A flash of life
The new summer
The fresh of spring
...
It's been 22years now; and I look upon those hills
The twin hills; that stand facing each other
The great towers that rise in full distinct of each other
The great book says I was born a sinner; man says I was born a saint
...
As the clouds pave way for the most beautiful stars
The glorious sun steps aside revealing the gaseous moon with all smiles
This is when my City rises…
