Requiem for a nightmare

I dreamed of death last night
Chaotically strewn corpses
Decomposing body parts

I dreamed of death last night
My mind buzzed ceaselessly
Befuddled by the sickening reek of death

I dreamed of death last night
With a requiem my heart awoke battered &
Frayed & welcomed me to
The eighth circle of hell
Where death and life are as one
Kyrie eleison
Lord have mercy
I was one with fraudsters & lechers
Evil brutes &
Charlatans
Souls submerged in muck
Confidence tricksters
Dastardly crooks
Dodgy merchants &
The breeders of hatred and discord
Shady politicians &
Devious advisers
Bogus prophets
So twisted they walked backwards

All hope was forsaken

I dread the night

HI Mshairi,
I have seen one of the blogger on your blog, his name is Charles Nyambuga, We went to school together in India, All i am looking from you is his e-mail address and or his contact info, every time i hear of the violence in kenya i worry about his safety.
I am currently based in chicago and would love to get in touch with him…DO you think you can help?
