Thou Enemy Poem by Kingsley Egbukole
Thou Enemy
You whom I detest
With body and soul
For wicked acts merciless
Decide to call at my abode
And afflict no one
But my beloved
Love of my heart
Uninvited quest
Tormentor of the flesh
Enemy of the heart
Why come to my house?
To bring down my paragon
Snub my happiness
And substitute with agony
Depart ye thou
Agent of the devil
Harbinger of death
I denounce you
Rebuke you
And whole again
Will my love be made.
(Wednesday 7th October,1996)

Kingsley I touched by your poem about the heartlessness and cruelty of illness. A good one!
Thank you so much Evelyn.
