Fishing

From the dock of superficiality
his line slowly descends the guarded depths
causing a ripple

Familiar with his bait
defenses encircle her lesion
forestalling a replay

Torn between romance and history
She weighs the starry night
against the frigid air

Empty, she lives with her decision

Lori,

Excellent journey through the depths. Right or wrong she is the one who lives with her decision.

Lori, an excellent redirection of the mind’s control over the emotional trauma left behind after being violated. It’s such a shame one must endure making these decisions. However, if that’s what it takes, then so be it.

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!
