Yu Gef fo Creep*...


Delila hovers seamlessly/drapes over crowded streets
in twilight dance/burgandy brown
face stoned/a burden revealing 
unknown/ silent lines
slumped sillouette singing
window pains/catches morning corner stress
she 
hums away the weariness
in stuttered sound and
muted beat
song slips around periphery/discordant sounding
un able to pass
subtly seeming
she says 
what 
of this tension teasing her
back to this place...
 
l.g. kanga

*Yu Gef fo Creep befo yu tenap: Krio for You got to crawl before you stand
