Illicit Water Poem by DEDAN ONYANGO
Illicit Water
Water is life
Our thirst we resuscitate.
Oceans potions
Notions
Lakes snakes
And
Rivers
Our livers
Shivers
But silver whiten
Future brighten
And
Later
Illicit explicit
Water
Hell.
Water is death
Our thirst we create.
Ocean notions
Potions
Snakes lakes
And
Our rivers
Leave us cursed.
Our livers darkens
Future frightens.
And
Now explicit illicit
Water
Death.

I like the comparisons made in the poem..life and death are each others shadow.
Our thirst we create. I like this especially this era of the deadly brew which is sweeping our youth. Nice poem Dedan
Something tells me this is about illicit brews and the agony that comes with it up pon society.... Good poem
