My Life is not a Poem

My life is not a poem
(Although I may take pieces
Odds and ends
Thoughts and maybes
Picked at random from my day
To make a snatch of song.)

My life is not a poem
(I may describe a book
or river
Perhaps a glimpse of a pet
Something that makes me pause
Awhile
To weave a little song.)

My life is not a poem -
Yet -
I suppose I could do worse
Than sing my songs
And smile at friends
In my snatch of verse.

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!
