Strange Mourners Poem by Francis Kokutse

Strange Mourners



Then,
l saw twisted tears,
that refused to fall;
And l looked well
only to see forked mouths;
speaking but making double sounds;
One sweet to the ear,
the other smells of death.
These are the mourners,
who have come
to pay their last respect.
