TICK-TOCK
Born 1979, M, from Blantyre, MalawiTICK-TOCK
By Mike Kaupembe
Tick-tock, tick-tock
On this lonesome road
That seem to lead nowhere
I sit, wait and contemplate
Hoping, praying and cherishing
A muse so strong
And holding on to the promise
From the east or west
Will my guide come through
To show me the way home?
Tick-tock, tick-tock
In this solitary confinement
Seconds mysteriously metamorphose into decades
Of hollowness and nothingness
I sit, wait and contemplate
Anticipating in deepest languish
Wretchedly wondering
Will the gruesome gates of these dark dungeons
Ever allow a glimmer of sunshine?
Tick-tock, tick-tock
Alongside this pool of hope
I remain glued to a corner of misery
Wasting and rotting away
Rediculed and unnoticed
I sit, wait and contemplate
Watching heaven or hell
When will my angel show up?
To dip me away
From this impasse of the greatest absurdity
