Something Passed Here!

SOMETHING PASSED HERE!

Sited; staring

At nothing 

But something

Lingers on

Suspense!

Stretched tight

Like a silk string 

Something isn't right!

Something 

Passed here!

Smooth; swift 

Can't you see its print?

Something bigger

Something wild

I can smell its scent

It smells of wet rust!

We can feel how it feels

Can't you feel?

The weather is still 

The ring's around the sun

Tata Awayo sits,

She sings

In native, her voice raspy 

It fills the air; lamentation 

Relatives from afar are quiet

Something 

Feasted on a soul for a diet!

Something passed here!

You don't have to cry!

The tears flow

Unaided,

They flow freely for sure 

The wound,

So fresh, so tangible;

The pain, so slow!

How can this be real?

Something came to steal!
