Poems by Judith

a collection of my poetry

If I should die tonight


Red African sun deaths
we celebrate with fire
smoke to darkness
ashes to ashes

the dreams have died and the memories
ended
together with the last days of our childhoods

I am sad but grown-up,now
I scurry from the fire
when the sun sinks tired
behind the city pyramids,

I see the dark

And know that there is this,
no more.
