Mulunda Silingi Phelix Nasiombe Poems

I love you my beautiful one
At night my hand stretches to nobody
Your pillow rests without your head
The pillows too feel your absence
...

My gentle one, our love is gone
It is gone forever, never to resurface
Like the death of your father or that of my mother
Our love is no more, no more for you and I
...

My tattered home is a friendly home.
...

My son why did you marry that slut?
I warned youthat their family is indecent.
I told you their mother had two husbands
Didn't I tell you that their father was an imbecile
...

Winds are blowing
The heart is aching
My feet are unable to move
Blood is bubbling hot in my chest
...

Night has come
It has come for you
Whether you earned
Or lost or crushed it
...

400 is their number
They cared not for their children
They cared not for their husbands
They cared not for their mothers
...

I care not of what they say, womenfolk tell
Tell them that I am whore
For who cares? I care not
Tell them I am a street one
...

Turkana is not just about drought!
It is about hidden treasures!
It is about untapped talents!
It is about igored sharp minds!
...
