Two Roads On Wed Poem by Earnest Gatuma

Two Roads On Wed



A post fortnight occurrence is due to happen,
It'll live a scar in my heart that's already sunken,
Tap into my life as doomsday,
Only if I must go at dawn down to the quay,
For a journey I should make to a city,
In the overseas my quest awaits in a facility,
Until I meet Pardus Sancho it remains sketchy,
On that D-Day I should wake up early,
But the third eye speaketh of an incoming wrath,
A treacherous plot just set for my path,
At the dawn when hazy I should fall,
Perhaps into the snares of a ghoul,
A spirit that is conversant with my past,
Will drill into my unconscious like a diamond shaft,
Exhume my dirty closet for a site seeing,
Amidst the mist the optics will be thrilling,
Why I eluded her when she needed me the most,
I walked away scot free like she had to pay the cost,
The cost of loving a broken avatar,
Sancho the ventriloquist caused the divided attention,
Caused the damage the size of a crater,
My first acquaintance with her in the circus was an illusion,
Because our relationship was founded on liaison,
I wasn't by myself when I did the motions,
Now she's on a vengeance spree,
Before she gets to Sancho she must take me,
'Strictly for keeps' was the code red,
Karma I should have wed.
