A Letter To Amanda series. by emperorfidel(m): 12:01pm On Jul 03, 2015 |
My dear Amanda Beautiful pearl of Umuada Elizabeth Taylor in all her beauty Gave you you credit as a glamour deity. Days have rolled into silent years Great silence that has defiled my ears A thousand letters, I have written A thousand wait, I was beaten. Distraught widower I now answer As I wail aloud like one with cancer Mourning your absence till the birds went to nest Only then will my sleepy body snatch a rest. If tears were kept, I have made a river If sacrifices were needed, I would give my liver I would do anything ask Nze the leper Anything just to have you reply my paper. How have you forgotten so soon The dance of Dinta we made in the moon Where I held your hand and savoured your face Before we got lost in a hot embrace. to be continued.

A Letter To Amanda part2. My dear Chimamanda Do you know those old parrots still wonder Why I always call you Amanda What do I care, I leave them to ponder A lot has happened since uou left for lagos A new faith has come all the way from India They always close their eyes and say God save us That cheeky group led by the skinny sister Lydia. No, i think they are all Irish That was what I heard in their new parish They said there is a God, Jesus the saviour Urged us all to seek his face and gain his favour. All these years and its changes I have wallowed in misery and pain With no Amanda to share with me in ages What meaning is life, if not vain. Your absence has made me seek out suicide Once I have hung a rope inside Noose around my neck, I hesitated at the time Obviously leaving you would have been a bigger crime. to be continued. an Emperor Fidel production. |
