I am a Ugandan
And nothing can break that eloquence.
I praise my being to the land;
...
I have walked
in the silvery mist decades
and seen rays of fate
which ascend nameless hate;
...
He took her by hand
And like the burning end
of a midnight cigarette,
He put her out...!
...

Down memory lane I'm compelled;
Somewhere in the distant lands,
...
Like an apple tree amidst the forest trees,
I have dwelt in
Both placelessness and placefulness.
...
What love was that,
That stood on the melting ice,
Which raided my soul's love
Like the fires of vodka?
