Teddy Kimathi Poet Narrative

Earth

I carry the weight of graveyards, strife, and sadness
with me. Often I hear the cries of my children,
as they bleed and suffer, their tears and blood
chocking my Bliss. It is very hard for me to bear
these tensions, knowing that I have no arms 
at all, to console my children.....
