Shammah Poem by Edward Kofi Louis

Shammah



My name is Shammah and i am from a village called Shammah,
But i have to meet my lover in the cleft of the rock of Etam.

Of a coercive power,
Of a coercive love,
Of a coercive romance,
Of a coercive passion,
To the very accent of my lover!
But like a visit to the Shrines of the gods,
She is all that i have.
