Legends do Die - by Paul Wanjiku

 








Legends do Die 

Say hi to your angel wife
Make her take on board tha'
Like so do you 
She's cramped in our blood pumps


Though our parents are now orphans


He joined his wife,
in the dead's
Coupling the dead-world
Camouflaging with ancestors


Now our parents don't have parents
It's a celebration thou'
100 graceful maneuvers


The man whom's my genes originated

Thank you for fathering my mother

It is painful that you're now dead😢
It hurts much picturing never seeing you😭


Maybe his angel wife found heaven lonesome and requested throne king for him and sent death-angel for him


Transition is everyone's destiny 💔 although it welcomed itself to us unannounced without allowing us at least last live-goodbye😢


If he was an artist his art would live
Legends do die; literature lives
