TALES ONE SHOULDN'T TELL

By Abubakar Auwal

After reading —Bring our casket home— by S. Vershima Agema

 

We offer fore note

in the homecoming of our casket.

father voice me— thus;

mites waves are myth—

in the cadence of thoughts...

we journeyed to after words,

life blessed the inky winds,

in the absence of lines & stanzas.

in this poem—

wrinkled the star that

twinkled away fluctuational destination

to the grave of uncertain realms.
