Mosaicked wounds
This was the way it ended: not with fire,
But carried quietly under sleep-beds,

I loved you because I did
So go in peace, be free, be kind.

What do you want to be when you grow up?
I cannot tell you that I want to be intoxicated, inebriated, and stashed away for the rest of eternity while holding your hand at the mediocre fair in the middle of the crowd of ill-mannered school-children who grew up too soon

The moon is a cheeseball,
Cratered, yellow, and huge like your eyeballs

Moving mindlessly and / Etching every alley along the way / With verses devoted to you

For all that melts in this month of fallen petals rising, you’re a paperclip, hanging on the edge of my bookshelf, bent into a heart.

Mother, why is our sky so different?

Mould
A quiet, seniority in its touch, / A tenderness that feels like it's meant to last

Escape
You thought you had escaped, didn't you? / Outran everything that weighed you down

Delila’s quest (20 October 2014)
Li’l Del is walking all alone
Li’l Del wants to find her way home.

Memory speaks
Sometimes at early dawn / You overpower my eyelids / And won’t let me wake up

Bluebird’s anthology
Who do I tell, sir? The walls do not listen,
The roads do not answer back

Making headlines
We'll put up feigned politicians / And their fake promises instead

What does a tomb look like?
Let us talk about death.
Let us talk about funerals.

The Birangona, un-buried
What matters when there's a Motherland to defend?
