Bondage

I can hear the tap

In the kitchen dripping

Through the crack

In the old stone sink

Stuck with stuff

Turned brown-yellow

With age.




Or maybe

That old Avira*

Debated awhile

And then shuddered

With revengeful pleasure

As he defiled

His master’s kusini**

With the colour of shit.

* Avira - A name derived from Abraham
** Kusini - Kitchen, derived from the Portugese Cozinha
