I wrote the following poem a while back in 2008, at the time it reflected my state of mind and although I have no recollection of how I felt at the time, I feel this poem to be fitting in relation to the current situation at home, a situation so tragic it reflects life as we see through its constant disruption to peace, to stability and to prosperity for again, it has come...
It has come
what dreadful beast
what malicious being
to descent upon ones innocent being
to be caught unawares
when time is spent to avoid such descent
It has come
It has caught me again
A game of tag, or catch or chase
It has come
Oh what to give to rid ones being of such
It blinds my eyes and deafens my ears
disillusioned and paranoid
It has come
It has come again though last I vowed
to note its approach and tame its coming
It has come
yet not for long
a lifelong visitor
known not to last
But woe for now
It has come
Piwang Ayang
