    Poetry
    Who Understands ?
    Submitted By: Charles Otumun

    So so interesting
    Like the first one I wrote
    I dropped it at the back of my hands
    Now I can't get it off my mind
    I scratched my papers
    To give me memories of a better tomorrow
    With a better understanding
    Riding along with the wingless angels
    We've rolled through imaginations
    Set back into the future history
    Both beauties of my testimonies spoken
    Touching the later world of now
    Who can I convince more
    When the youths listen to love songs of old
    Take me back to where I belong
    Where we speak languages and it's camouflaged
    They do not understand me anymore
    Crystal clear I'm the lost one in a lame man's world
    And what I do, I'm about losing it
    I'll fight the fight of survival and grow old with it
    Because I was born to do it
    Poetry is where I belong
