FIRST REFUGE ( alone in the laybrinth of the consciousness )

Latent hands slap me , reprimanding me,
for crossing the thresholds and leaving graveyards, and abyses of my ancestors !!

Constellations blink their sleepless eyes;
Forfeited of my inheritances , where shall i go??

Itenerary winds lead me to the mazes of life,
Provisions , amenities are not provided.

Refuge and directions withheld.
Strangled by many hungers, illnourished
My plasma draws diet from my soul;

Metamorphosis;
My face peels in layers?
I tear out masks from my flesh.

I undo my limbs , unmould my memories;
I uncrown my personality, divest my character;

Upon the great mirror of life reflects my true self, with wings and without genders;

Achromatic; unrestrained; i stand
hallowed and handicrafted by electric threads.

Unburderned of the pile of skulls and ashes i carried on my back,
Relieved of adornments, ceremonies ,crosses, etherial acts, faith,
crusader scabbards, ego - inquisitions; political hurdles, blackmagic ,chairmanships , doctorates , other social divinites...

I realise the truth
of being only" a man".
