depression
Like a lion stalking sheep
It prowls the kraal of my heart.
Waiting, biding time
My thoughts like a sickly lamb
Limp and falter with each step
The lion growls in the fringes of my mind
Swiping at the weak boundaries of my thoughts
Hungry, ready to pounce
Its only a matter of time
Before the walls cave in
Like a dragon
It swaddles my fragile heart
In its talons, pearls of blood
Its nostrils, spew toxic fumes
A deathly dance with the treasures within
My Hopes and dreams, of a life unlived
It is a matter of time before the walls shatter
And like paper planes,
They will be consumed in fire and brimstone

Christmas traffic
This year, Christmas comes early
Showering our hearts
Not with cheer, but with icy drizzles
On the Nairobi-Nakuru highway
We are out here mingling
Not with people, but with traffic
We are out here making merry
Not with drink, but with our misery
And so the night slithers by
The sluggish trucks crawl away
We are stuck, in traffic
chasing rainbows
Under the Soothing rays of a dreamy sunset
Devils danced on a barren rivulet
Cold food was served on lonely tables,
And Cheap talk accompanied the winding roads
Surf and sand was on my mind
Sweat and dirt coated my hands
All in the name of chasing rainbows
Someday, on a lonely path
High up on a grassy patch
There my journey will lead.
With My heart heavy as lead,
And my brain savoring empty memories,
There I shall dream of my bagful of rainbows
