SOMATHOPIAN CHILD



 
 Big & bright desert eyes,
Sticking out to escape his carven like visage
So dark like moonless night,
 Beautified by the very same eyes that glitter like falling stars,

Flaunting an agony smile,
With yellow tooth so dull
 Like an unpolished lost treasure of them times

Friend of pains & enemy of time,
Who only knew life as a curse &
Death a freedom afar.

Black South African child,
I heard you crying that you suffer,
If so, what  about Somathopian child?
