Biography

They come and go Flimsy and sometimes vivid And they disappear at any moment Like visitors in the middle of dreams Shades of memories for the loved ones. Mphiliseni, Pietermaritzburg RSA (@Mphiliseni1)

Many people are dying, dead (13th July 2020)

Listen to their prayers- “Don’t take me, take him and take her.” Unceasing prayers with no beginning and end. Prayers, entreaties, pleadings, False promises for change of future behaviour, Even duplicitous criminals and charlatans With newly found courage to lie again- All to be spared from a certain and punctual death. God must have thousands of ears and bags full of amulets and clementines. Many people are dying, dead.

All poems are copyright of the originating author. Permission must be obtained before using or performing others' poems.
