Behold the queen of dance

Behold, the princess, Behold the queen of dance!
Following the bright sun till eve;
She is from Ramting Kabin.
Beneath her cheek are necklaces
As she joins the dance on the sound of a log drum;
Of tarou and Siantwei that unite the song.
Let the crowd behold thy show and welcome 
Like penkarop that sing at noon.
During the time of joys
She dances over his sweet voice.
She is a beauty, a dream of her mother.
She took away her grief and pain,
With devotion, she rejoices with her mate in new attires.
On her head shine is a reithao
And cover herself with Pwasin as the leaves on a tree.
She is a perfect song. a song for the soul.
She wore an unbeatable shield 
Like the massive storm and rain.
Legend sing in praise of you
Go on my man, as they try to mark us 
As a pleasing joy filled the air
The man has assigned a dove for us 
As an anthem of the free
"Inpui Ringsei Dingo Ngo".

I cannot say I remember

image credit: pinterest Then suddenly they showed the faces  The change had found where they lived  The names were replaced too quickly  They found where they were hid Circled in wagon filled tragedies  No one rides off to the west Attention now asks for a holiday  While famila is held to the test I cannot say I remember  Reading in foreign tongues  How I wish it were yesterday  And this world today was still young.

Grief |Poem|

Grief /Poem Image credit: https//www. image search.com This is how I have dealt  With grief most of my life  sharing it on paper instead of humans It feels safe that way, words don't feign sympathy and paper doesn't stutter It makes the grief feel projected As if happening to another person, Not me, never me, never now As if I am a mere character in a distant story As if the grief will end after the full stop, after the end As if fiction will drown reality And reality seem fictitious  But of late, of late the fiction seems to be a maze A maze I have spent too long in A period longer than forever And now, it is too late to get out of and for human touch.

The dead don't die

She was burning your garbage, her sari caught fire and she died. He was cleaning your manhole, a pipe burst and he died. She didn't receive he wages, she hung herself and she died. He was wading through the drain, he inhaled poisonous gases and he died. Remember. The dead don't die. When the media turns a blind ear, And the state is unaccountable, When there is no money to send his body back home, and the public is indifferent, when his family is not given any jobs, And the city lives on in oblivion, Remember. The dead don't die. As you build your new house, carelessly discared your waste, As you choose your blinders And preach your progress, Remember, The dead don't die. And when you constructy your walls, And lock your gates, When you look paste the filth, And praise the state, Remember. The dead don't die. *This obituary is dedicated to the undocumented and unreported death of waste pickers, sweepers and manual scaveng...
