Tan - Renga Poetry Collaboration - by Christina Chin (Malaysia) & Uchechukwu Onyedikam (Nigeria)

 



Tan - Renga Poetry Collaboration by Christina Chin (Malaysia) & Uchechukwu Onyedikam (Nigeria)


the village 

witch doctor's

abracadabra

summer sun disappears

uplifting blind eyes 





now gone

the chance of beauty

taste on my lips

the sweat salt

and rare meat

 

 

 

of rain
drenched in old memory
she comes with murder
at the sight
of a cockroach




time between us

our hearts running on muse

lover — and a friend

she is not

but a fiend





couple

wind & tree

peace of mortals

a utopian 

fantasy
