But the damn thing lies like a fossil in my mind
Cloying,
Fermenting
My senses are off'
...
Eight flaming hours,
The mad angry fire ravaged the
Purple house.
The fire screamed,
...
leaves in my front yard rustle,
I wonder who is coming to see me
Early this morning.

...
They keep telling me,
I'm gifted, but that's beside the point
My outbursts are my formula,
To keep despair in abeyance
...
Out from shadows thick as forests
Out from boot camps
Out from sinking oil wells
Run on deceit
...
Christmas day! bombs came from
Hell into kano, billow after billow the
smoke rose, draped the sun in black.
Nightfall, the Moon didn't bother to come out.
...
Do they receive cold
Flowers in their moist moments?
And do they wander through death
As they did in life?
...
A jail house where all corpses
Are warehoused,
A jailhouse of the ship wrecked,
A jailhouse slimey with dragon
...
They wore black'
Painted their teeth black'
Made their faces look long'
Pretending they were mourning'
