Joyce Msonda Biography

It's ludicrous how quickly you quickly forget
the nothing you once were
and how like sound,
you move so instantaneously in acknowledging
...

Anxiety hitting you every corner
adrenaline rushing through your blood
A craving so deep you can't hold it
Heart beating too fast as if a heart attack
...

As you ruthlessly fired at my ego,
In a furnace, sweat dripping down our faces.
You forgot that I was a mindless creation,
That unfortunately suffers at the expense of people like you.
...

Beneath me, I could feel it.
Such a rush, the adrenaline drowns
the capillaries of my cadaver.
Cold, rigid, moist, cobblestone.
...

Moments changed in flashes
Innocence stolen so easily
How could I be so foolish
So naive, innocent
