In your gold bordered satin fabric br "Why don't you write my name? " br "Why did you pull the string of emotion? " br Your tongue lapped at the edge of the lip; br You asked for forgiveness. br I wailed at your doorsteps; br Dousing myself with coconut water br I begged for my misfortune. br The worm infested rice; br The drain water leaking into the well; br The itching joints of the fingers; br The yellowish eyes searching for br An identity in the quagmire of sins. br One by one my ancestors fell br Like pigeons shot; br Where have you been? br When we went on digging the soul; br What world did you throw me into? br To suck blood like a witch, br You came and stayed on the alter, br And wiped the stains with red flowers.
