My Ground Printable Version PRINTABLE VERSION
by akinbo a. a. cornerstone, Nigeria Jan 12, 2005
  Poetry

  

I remember the day I saw your eyes on my flesh,
All up and down the thing I call a dress,
So much intensity that all was not but bear...

...what day is it?

Now,
I see only the tears of joy that I stood my ground,
Had I failed to be the Man?
Nothing would be here today...
...not even our living;

No matter the face we see,
What will be will surely be in the end.
