On The Lifespan of Clay

Life is life is life is life is strangers in Volubilis language, embargoes of the heart, clots strangeness  new tongue blocks the archaic, an old truth is lost is stolen by conquest, clay August throne, sailing on a  moon spilled moor was a  life Yes, dream Life is life is life is life is soul evacuations is dangerous to dream is life is stolen by time is life Time ticks, good times,  bad times, is Allah’s time, is life, in life is always honey,  always the panicked  wings of a grateful hummingbird Soukeyna is a writer and poet based in London.
