Waiting

WAITING From here my roost is not far Only fogged. Yet paved with tar. I am that teetered beast Loose me , Awaiting me is a feast. I hear that drum of my hide rumble, And the flute of my bones waft Tunes not humble, That tune of my beginning soporific yet ecstatic in singing Sheer paroxysm!!!! I am that carnivore, This forage starves me… Unbind me, see home awaits my return. I’m through with my first death. My second birth is close.. ©Chikwado Nwattah. 2014
