My mind is boggled down

My chest feels wrapped too tight,

Just wanna curl up in a ball

Sure as hell don't wanna fight

I wanna lean back in my chair

The Land Debacle

There`s nothing idyllic about the contentious bone of land
Pitting us the natives with our fair-skinned compatriots,
Dimwitted pundits flamboyant in protruding bellies `re astonished
Beating about the bush hiding beneath their thumbs at loss.

With psychedelic postulations awashing the truth,
Conceited paragon of virtues quib banal sophistries
Straying the populace uprooted in pernicious modernity.

Make way
What do you have to say?

Pray!

What is your task?

I have taken so long to learn.
There are no ropes to it.
Just candles to burn.

Imminently the render`d heart palpitated with flashbacks
Of poignant grandmother`s funeral;
The same white van halted by the gate in howling dusk,
We were squeezed at the back with father,his brother-

Holding life
A slice of it
Never simple
Take and eat
Rich in goodness
Full of cheese
Creamed and buttered
Sides unseen
