Life struggles Poems
Secret Journey
by Nkwachukwu Ogbuagu
Routes of jagged creation line this journeyꓽ
Slopes of jealous mountains, impatient-running waters
Crestfallen deserts, hungry savannahs, bemoaning wildernesses . . . .

The silt of the desert dunes blister your feet,
Your pupils dart about recklessly and pick on those prehistoric beasts,
Jackals howl at you . . . .
You thirst

as though born a rebel
I've crawled along
A wavering path
Learning early in life
That there was a
Kind of safety in silence
That saying nothing
To anyone anywhere
