Amid the vestiges of indigo nocturne,
The sky reverberates with anticipation.
The gradual rhythm of light
Breathes order and motion
Under the receding cloak
Of the once reigning night.
A solar sliver slips:
Belly to the horizon,

An excellent way for mind-
A fine element for joy's ,
Brings improvement via peace

A brilliant attitude indeed under the

I was there when they found him
Alive, barely inching across the concrete
he needed to go
Yes
He needed to go.
He needed a fact functioning friend

Align with the lust for damnation.
To damn your dearest creation

Prison
by Shira Yovel
Static. Elongated. Loud. Present. Clear.
Piercing. Slow. Sharp.
An existence.
Stuck in the middle of nothing.
Nothing being the space

Happiness
by Sharon Morgan
I have chosen you because you are popular
You are the one for whom we strive
But often, you will prove to be elusive when
life decides to take its nosedive
I have always loved you; others love you too
It is how you lift the spirit
Pumping joy into the heart
It is your presence that brings contentment
To perfection, you display your fine art

SONNET XI – The Prayer
by Khayelihle Bongiswa Gamedze
I've seen losers win the race,
I've seen weak ones keep the pace.
I've seen longer shots from way behind,
I've sought a voluble and a voluble was nowhere found.
I made promises, broke them all.
I made golden towers, and I watched them fall.
I made Caesar mine, I made tons of gold.
I sought my book and found my story was never told.
