SCHOOL

SCHOOL

All these begin at school

In classrooms of deceit

Minds in a whirlpool

Black and white views

Little boys and girls

Come forth and play in the sun

Grow in the light

The teachers said

Song and dance

Heralding growth

Adolescent whims

And acned faces

Sweet smelling risk

On butterfly wings

Petals of sneaky desire

Falling, falling into chasms of want

The eloquence of stolen moments

Whispers in solemn piety

In voids where luxury is not a comfort

And school ends

A WALK THROUGH MY BRAIN

A WALK THROUGH MY BRAIN

 By Brian Moseti

One evening I strolled into my thoughts and got lost

In jungles of desire and want, the glamorous appeal

Where birds chirped with melodious malignancy and animals stared hungrily

For a fleeting moment I thought it a dream,

A conjecture of my imagination,

Until I realized I was walking in the confines of my brain.

Haunted by creepers that snaked down in the pale grey light.

Branches that twisted and creaked, whispering in malicious effort,

Conspiring against me.

Shadows that rippled in false light and writhed with darkness.

Whispers that invited malice on flowery tunes
