The African Attire
Borne 
from 
the 
heart

a 
nation
With 
a 
vision
An 
inscription
Of 
passion
Not 
a 
notion
But 
an 
unction
To

Premium Member Cosmic Climax
It's much too close in here
for loneliness,
or companionship.

Either way,
I grow too small
non-existent
non-essential
undervalued domesticity with insufficient commodity,
just another over-populating parasite
underneath Earth's glamorous backside;

Suppressed incubator within a...
