In your gold bordered satin fabric <br />"Why don't you write my name? " <br />"Why did you pull the string of emotion? " <br />Your tongue lapped at the edge of the lip; <br />You asked for forgiveness. <br />I wailed at your doorsteps; <br />Dousing myself with coconut water <br />I begged for my misfortune. <br />The worm infested rice; <br />The drain water leaking into the well; <br />The itching joints of the fingers; <br />The yellowish eyes searching for <br />An identity in the quagmire of sins. <br />One by one my ancestors fell <br />Like pigeons shot; <br />Where have you been? <br />When we went on digging the soul; <br />What world did you throw me into? <br />To suck blood like a witch, <br />You came and stayed on the alter, <br />And wiped the stains with red flowers.<br /><br />Tiku akp<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/kali-4/
