Poetic Voice of Reason - Charlotte Ndiribe

Endnotes

1. A Little

Thus says a little wise man

Tis a little more sleep

By a little lazy man

Of a little brain

Only a little scrap of food

More little still will be left

On his little table

If his little ground is untilled.

2. No Change

What has changed?

I mean what has changed in the pattern

of the rising and setting of the sun?

What has changed in the arrangement

of natural endowments around us?

Has the rain not tasted the same?

Or the wind ever the mistake

of revealing its hidden identity?

What has changed since millennia past?

Generations have trod and trod

and the monotonous pattern of life

yet remains the same

giving one a certain sense of sleeping inertia.

What has changed?

I bellow again,

from the depths of abrupt homogeneity.

3. Hope

I look at the sun,

I see a bright array of colours.

I scarcely can contain

the power of the illumination.

I hardly can perceive

the shortest way to reach that world.

I stare on, unperturbed.

I fall into a dream,

I am with Angels,

in paradise, what joy!

4. The Funeral

I went to the funeral of a certain man

I was so shocked that the dead man had died.

I was shocked because I never knew

the dead man would succumb

so helplessly to death.

And I pondered and considered this man,

his prominence, stupendous wealth,

houses, estates, cars, and many children.

I saw that the funeral dressers did

with his body as they pleased.

They dressed him up in his final suit

as if they did not need his consent.

I remember this was a man

who may have flared up,

if his orders were not hastily followed,

and no fly
