Words of Aduke

Kelechi Fash

Blue-flamed fires burn me
Bloodthirsty wars conquer me
My walls of Jericho falls upon me
A tears that never dry
Another Mississippi to see

The precious ‘ori’ pleads
The figures stationed by the walls
;of the darkest room

A smiling painful wound
With seemingly endless cut

Aduke time left no remorse

Dark secrets lies in the embrace
Of  a pitiful empty eyed Aduke
“I await my lovers peck that never will be”
