Dislocated, disjointed, an act of teruf
Thrown in a pit, below eye level, handled rough
Cut off from my forbears, disconnected narrative
Willful forgetting, past events not substantive
Solipsistic universe, me myself and I
Eternal chasm between world and mind
Acts of conquest, physical, intellectual
Reach no-mans’ land, turn back now
Man with many homes, at home in none
Amongst the holy, the holy shunned
Constant diaspora, age of anxiety
Full of petrol but running on empty
Physical-spiritual, dichotomy manufactured
A personal unity, holistic nature fractured
From communal striving to personal war
All are, forever, Tinok Shenishba
