By Shem Onderi They pinch me, for they were made for someone else.Oftentimes, they are uncomfortable on my feet.The owner lends them grudgingly,With the agreement that they shall be returned soon —After the journey. You see, my wallet will not allow me to have my own,Not even one pair.With borrowed shoes, the owner demands them […]

A Tribute by Nyar Murima — Wangari Mwai The quiet waters ofNam Lolwe —They are no more.Only harsh waves of tears,They crush and hurtThe shores ofNam Lolwe. The winds in the waters ofNam LolweCan’t stop their roaring cry.The waves rise and runAcross the ever-dry sandy shores ofNam Lolwe. High waves rise in murmur,Rising and falling,All […]
