My Flower Lady 
(The Gladiolus)
By Handsum-Hart

I liken her
To the sword-shaped leaves
Of the gladiators favorite flower
The six feet tall Gladiolus

But know this
The long and narrow
Angles of her beauty
Are sharper than any sword

And have pierced
My sight
Causing incurable infatuation
With her beauty

She is the world’s
Sharpest flower
And when she blooms
Deeply her beauty slices into my soul

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
