The Kamnara of Sakwa are making ground to build for future generations

If you came across
A thin unfed lad
In brown plastic sandals
Contracting and relaxing legs like a cow's forelimbs
A shiny silver coated stagnant watch on the left
With a slight forward bend
That is me.

Of hooting and misplaced stones

From my dry lips

If you read my mind
You will find sex among other vanities.


We are but a passing crowd
