As She Should Be
it should be more,
than a dream,
That our great great great
Grandchildren
Get to be
On an Earth, that is still
Beautiful.
As She Should Be.
All things we love and hate about our country.
it should be more,
than a dream,
That our great great great
Grandchildren
Get to be
On an Earth, that is still
Beautiful.
As She Should Be.
nikifunga shuka
Ndio kiuno irudi

hidden under their teeth…

. The morality of victim is always called into question. I think my story, can easily be summed up as ‘alijipeleka’
In our ideology of morality,
Silence is the right answer.
And yet,
We own that beauty,
Much more than
The stars we are under.
