Asking for relief From the pain of neglect. Tossed on the sidewalk, A bum left like a wreck. How will the new day go When the sun shows my plight? I looked for compassion, Instead got into a fight. How can you win, a loaded deck. You can play your hand But you are not holding The four aces in their hand.

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!
