The lonely chicken

 The lonely chicken 

Sitting in the dark so tasty yet so alone

It doesn’t fit in 

Made by a person who doesn’t fit in living its life in the house of another

Not eaten 

Not good enough 

Never will be


The lonely chicken 

Not just forgotten but not cared about

They’re not responsible

So it cries alone on the kitchen table after all has been said and done

It could rot there no one would care


Except me


Lonely chicken 

Was tasty 

But only we know

Lonely chicken 

Like me 

Living in a hard place

The price you pay Isiah much higher than you can give 

Lonely chicken 

Coming to life in a place of uncertainty 

What it has to offer is just not desirable 

Just not important

Just not good enough to think about


Lonely chicken 

Just like me 

All alone

Sitting in the dark 

After all has been said and done 


Lonely chicken 

Just like me 


….

No place to fit in 

No place to be given 

Has to force its way through 

Otherwise

It will sleep on the kitchen table

What it is...

I see Life like a rose in the ice... beautiful but with cold settings - There are so many incredible things out there - but we always need to fight and perservere against the hardships too... otherwise the cold will win ... and we will wither away.

My imagination has led me to believe in something called 'Sudan Fairytale' -
The fantasy that My country will one day be independant and proud, never selfsish to provide its people with its needs, give freedom and success to all, be forever committed to achieve a prosperous inhabitance to every Sudanese in their own country-

My eyes fail me and I see the truth which I call - 'Khartoum Heartbreak' - This is a theme running through the blog under the 'Khartoum Heartbreak' Poems and whatever else about Sudan conveying broken down love, poor streets and cut off electricity along with a lot of other decays and problems in Khartoum city Life.

But I love my country and so I have no choice but to merge the Pain and the Love as one.

Faith is my heart and I could never do without it hoping in my prayers that I can be someone better always and that God forgives me as I fall in Mistakes through that frozen path of Life...

Sometimes I feel under control with all the too many emotions that run to colour my days and nights - Books, movies, music, dreams, friends, family, strangers, travel, - reality - the 10 O' Clock news -Most of the time I'm very Lost in trying to understand - whatever happens becomes tangled into writing this confusing memoir -

It's a really odd combination of air - not sure whether it is refreshing or suffocating - stabilising or maddening - But I breathe and
so it is
'Memoirs of a Sudanese breath' as I am 'Lost but under control' -
