using my book        
as a cap brim
shielding sharp prisms
of glass reflection      
watering eyes  
as ducks glide      
across the dam      
       
grass blades jump to tickle        
the sides of my hands      
which pillar the worn body      
to the soft lawn      
       
african monologues      
perform through      
morning mist      
settling into choruses      
       
a gecko swiftly shuttles      
-taxi through        
the traffic      
of ants      
wearing dust roads thin;     
on their way        
to the office      
generating saved lunches      
for the queen

Inspired by a few recent poems written by my friend Casted_Runes.
Can't help but reckon, I'd love to hear Missy read it!
