Crying eyes force me down


I can't get up and out from


Under your boot


Your face leaves me empty


There's no where to go


And you are the end of the road


I'll fight you though


As you bruise me and slash me


I'll rise above you


Surpass you.


Leave you weak and helpless


As you left me.

Gripping and powerful imagery here of abuse captured wonderfully in the language of the poet. Well done.

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!
