Spoken Word

ANXIETY
By Uzezi Ologe


Let us not flame so high

And forget our ends so nigh

Let us crouch closer to earth

To feel more intense

The warmth of the hearth



Let us not plunge so deep

And forget the surface is just so steep

Let us dance with the ripples

So to know how much easier it is

To sink than to float



Let us not live

With faces etched in frowns

But wear smiles like a gown

With a day at a time

A step at a time

A sigh at a time

To savour the small

Pleasures of life.
