TOLULOPE OGUNLESI
RECONFIGURATION
i watch my blob of saliva caught in the fangs of rushing water rushing down the steps to where oblivion reigns like a digestive enzyme some steps now lead nowhere. they once promised a lot
and delivered, until a reconfiguration of architecture.
like lives unable to convince you of their destination.
SUICIDE
A tangling vine Of placenta Around the plasticine Of his neck
A struggling twin Is the table
He kicked out From under unformed feet
Mummy Is where he dangles………..
ABEOKUTA
Where were you When cities Jostled
An atlas of Rumbling Elbows
When I was schemed out When early I stumbled And fell
A Geography of Misplacement
When I spread my shell Amidst
A Coordinate of obese stones
And tears joined hands In rivery unity
Around and under The rocks
An Architecture of AncientWonderness
