 I felt woolen threads of afghan carpet tickling me, 

a saga of emotions draining golden reserves of energy.
i saw cherry red apples dangling from leafy tree twigs, 
swam rapidly across chilly currents of deep water.
i kicked loose chunks of dirt with my spiked shoe, 
rode on bare horseback through soggy fields of unripened paddy.
i drenched myself with saliva dribbling from my mouth, 
fed the cows with lush green bundles of country grass.
i devoured greedily, roasted slices of barbecued goat, 
paced vigorously through sea sand hosting an army of venomous crab.
i drove my slender nosed sedan at breakneck speeds, 
whistled at the top of my lungs piercing placid carpets of air.
i swayed rhythmically to infectious tunes of music, 
sipped chocolate rum from large beer mugs of bone china.
i stared at my reflection in sparkling mountain water, 
draped myself in expensive linen suit with tinges of gold.
i dug tunnels in mud with crowbars of metal, 
fondled long silky ears of my pet Alsatian.
i painted the courtyard walls with hasty strokes of king sized brush, 
snored like a demon through humid passing hours of the summer night.

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!
