Life Writings

Through the pen i hear my soul
And my heart stops as the ink spills
on the paper, germinating ideas that
grow and feed the innocent ignorant
young mind! "Napenda kuandika!"
A random thought from a random mind
"Naogopa kuandika!" the fear gripped mind
of an impotent writer!
I speak for the pen in the silence
of the ink spill
I form a new entity in the blank
exerpts of nothingness.
Something comes up, "Mafikira ya mwandishi", "Mistari, mizani,
sukari ukurasani"Sweetness all
through the pages, existence in
blankness!
The inkigation fertiles the page
and printings grow and grow
and show the fruits of random
thoughts galore.
I feed you with my writing!
I feed you with life!

For Print...

The Philosophy of print
that dictates my writing
to a place where ink
runs through my veins
and multiplies to multiples
of synonyms and rhyme
and similes that show
the rightings (writings) that stood through
time.
Through wars and disease
through pressure and release
through the tensions of other
forms of communication
that steal the beauty and life
that speaks and lives and
fights through the pen
For Print!
