One Saterday Night Poem by Naldo Africa

Whilst ambulating in
the sullen city,
the wind breathes gayly
through the alleys,



Raindrops fall,
far distant
you could hear
how the pelter patters
an elegiacal call


All of a sudden;
three rascals strode by
and seized a young girl
out of her car


Dragged her soma
to the darkest
corner afar



She wailed like a siren,
in fear i ran away



Strange later on...
they came along the path
placed a lively smile
on my dead face.
