Into the pit wandering looking for reason to exist beyond time
Clean read of words written in match sound left to die
Masters feel left cold as the stones above their heads
Poetry sneaking by
All but
Dead



Hands break the sod of faces in palaces in graveyards waiting for the name
Backs slaved in marking fates red bucks dying in fast women crying

I want and hunger takes its toll body breaking soul in blacken images
Screaming hard in face needing pleading for layer heavy on tea bitter

Slap the whip in riddles crateful too much not given not enough to know
Salvage of heart takes a trap reaping mental pursuit picking pride sleep

If lucky all will stay in private hate on a stage called mistakes faithless
Red eye whiskey pulls a plucking slug of need left blood red face kept

Rasp of shadows set you free faster than rope waiting graves picking hope
Saddle up fate in reality craft of cheap in back labor wasted in place tried

Pease comes up form a bubble in brook played hard in already place in shelf
News breaks in true as failure accepts gone long as bed calls passion eyes

Grasp of noon bells ring in help let to free bondage screaming loud and long
Fried indigo river escapes final eyespot chains vial image in cross down

Moan full in dark life takes and I please the shadows making failure wait
Why must it be as crystal spinning for ends taking love where he will

Keep on moving so not stay in free as heartache finds you in marks carved
Tell the wind and let the moon rest on the skin trust leads passion's lost place

Sparkling moisture calls salt from deep within as the warmth comes in woman
Already going in the harness of peaceful feelings as ground meets sound waiting

A long time ago wisdom reached its peak leaving only knowing you as a lover
Friend left on the stone of truth reality strikes to the soul passion now gone

Pen pricks a boil festered by society taking pretence
Masters feel left cold as the stones above their heads
Poetry sneaking by
Cry Willie cry

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!
