Can We Not

Control can we not

Others ways they do

Logic repressed

Distorted the view

 

Expect can we not

Reactions as our own

Acceptance in all things

Revealed how ones grown

 

Change can we not

Journeys of the soul

Steps taken do lead

Once broken now whole

 

Manipulate can we not

One unwilling to be

Link by link removed

Once again to be free

 

Silence can we not

The voice from within

Full circle does come

New life to begin

 

Destroy can we not

A hearts deepest desire

Though hidden may be

Upon last breath does expire

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!
