Amidst carnivore eyes

Waiting in deadly stillness,

Shining in witchy sunset

Battling to carve the way.

Among debris of decades lived woe, 

In brackish, bloody and deadly water

With trembling arms n’ empty stomach

Thickened sweat on rashes that stench,

Sick heart with hard battering cough

He is sailing for hope

From banks of illness and misery

Via the waters of bleeding history

To the dumb oceans of mystery 

Behind the bleeding sinking Sun

ebony kayak floats aimlessly   

to horizons of no-return.

He is plunged in thick obscurity

from banks of illness and misery,

via the waters of bleeding history

to the dumb oceans of mystery,

to banks of illness and misery

via the waters of bleeding history

from the dumb oceans of mystery,

hope sailed a day in history. 

a history that travelled to n’ fro

from banks of illness and misery,

via the waters of bleeding history

to the dumb oceans of mystery

to banks of illness and misery,

via the waters of bleeding history

from the dumb oceans of mystery.
