in school,
when i saw you
i intuited i have found
my lost world in you
...
in my definition, it is
a season
like this
as i will show
...
In pains,
You gave me life
In enormous care
Like the egg
...
looking at my origin,
please do not tell me
to go to the army
forget about the structure
...
Alone,
That’s what I’ve always been
With no one to push me
When I climb
...
THE PLEA
Assist me to resist
All evils that exist.
Drown me into contemplation
...
CULTURES
When I came back home,
I saw a couple on the path
To the farm
...
I do not know how to call
The colour of a dry gourd
But that is the colour of her skin.
Her eyes full of love
...
No one would understand me
As a simple Nubian
Enough is what I gain
And I never envy what others gain
...
In Diaspora,
Frayed khaki trousers fears the floor
And a stressed neck jumper
Matches the situation up
...
