It Is Only Sound That
Remains
Remains
We lost everything
we must have lost
we started treading
without a lantern
without a lantern
and moon,
moon
the kind Feminine
was always there
in the childhood memories
of a clay and straw rooftop
of a clay and straw rooftop
and above the young
plantations
plantations
dreading the swamp of
crickets.
crickets.
How much must one pay?
