on my heart


And the night reaches me 
With solemn whispers
Like the songs of a thousand air,
Whooshing on my heart
As creases of butter.

Quench my thirst

I need a glass cup of water, To quenched my thirst  From the trap of war.

O a new heritage plausible in kaftan and deltan clothing  Copyright 2019 by Martin Ijir
