Written by Chaka Sichangi_The Great Elephant
I’ll end with my beginning and by that I’ve begun with my end,
Life as a double entendre,
Humility birthed by pride,
Glide though I plummet,
Tango in my stride,
Two husbands for my bride,
Cry for her – she prays for me,
She wanted to dance in the monsoon rain but instead she swallowed the sun on our honeymoon whilst
making love to a chimera,
she loved it but she hates me now,
Alas! Fading bliss and lightnings second kiss,
Just when I thought I’d fixed that diabolic contraption in my chest,
Two seeds sown,
The first, the possibility of a posterity to inherit my curse; hence the beginning of my continuance,
The last; the beginning of our end,
That damned trodden path beckons me to begin on it again.
