GALESA Poem by Dryford ChimutuThis poem is about social injustices that are happening at a small rural towwnship called Nsundwe. Nsundwe is a township in Malawi’s capital district of Lilongwe.Over the dry lands of Nsundwe gales rampage They blow through the herd of charging B. bubalises And butcher one to their Pyrrhic victories: The victories of shame that haunt the very nuance of Nsundwe the name. Over the dusty plains of Nsundwe gales avenge They bite up and rope the damzels on their grazing lands And sweep the sires away into captivities: The captivities of deterrence and paltry pleas, or hot damzels causes censure. Over the red soils of Nsundwe gales ravage They toss the ashen wigs off those hairless hearts And litter them with distended desires: The desires that see no piteous faces of the bucolic damzels of Nsundwe Over the tranquil grounds of Nsundwe gales damage They shake even the integrity of the wigged gals And send pro bono crumbling down into mercenaries: The mercenaries of shame that fetch millions off of the mortifying toils of the rustic damzels of Nsundwe.
