Wipe Your Tears
Son I noticed it- the creaks, groans, cynicism & soreness
the way your irises cried from my head to the feet
as I crawl up tall , spiky palm trees filthy &
foetid hunting for the goldmine
& she noticed it too- the way you let your teeth hold each other as if
You want them to merge forever as she wobbles under a torn umbrella
At Utafi market re-selling busted & teary tomatoes
the jostles are for you – we had flairs but no one pushed us
you’ve got some diamond & we will push you to the horizon
Wipe your tears – you are not rupturing the way we ruptured to emptiness
