Through the Eyes of Julius


THROUGH THE EYES OF JULIUS

In memory of Julius Chingono(passed on 02.01.11)

We were miniscule caricatures

Split between the rims of his glasses

Each one of us

Stuffed shirts and too serious

To gather laughter in our stride

He stitched simple paisleys

On our foreheads

That told the world

We were “tighter than

thief’s anus”

All we needed was just a fart

To remind us we are human

After all.
