SUNSET AT NOON

Jude Chukwuemeka Muoneke


Notice of absence from Jude Chukwuemeka Muoneke
I will surely get back to you when I come online.

 

Painful exit, 
A son's death deliberated 
on a dining table, 
By frenemies of his household. 

Jealous fuels their plans, 
A young promising Kenneth, 
With plans to wed by December
with his twin-brother. 

Today, 
There he lays
like a log of wood, 
His twin fainted
a million times.

Enemies are within
your roofs,
Witchcraft their only mirror, 
Devil lives in skirts and trousers. 

"If I die, bury me, 
take me not to the mortuary" 
These were his last words, 
Reincarnation, he vows,
Vengeance an inevitable mission.
