Your Looks

 


Take me places, where it ain’t shine
Whisper, caress, tongue – your touch – spice
I quiver, I tremble; your lips – morning dew
I shake, I spasm; your looks – treasonous!

Graze my lips – upper, lower – let them dance
Heart, electric, it beats – Danger! Danger!
Dangerous, the man with the dance of life
I shake, I spasm; your looks – treasonous!

Take me places, where it ain’t shine
Whisper, caress, tongue – your touch – spice
I quiver, I tremble; your lips – morning dew
I shake, I spasm; your looks – treasonous!

Your eyes, take me places – dark and light
Your lips, tease me to places – I’d rather forget
Your steel, sharp – cuts long and tall
I shake, I spasm; your looks – treasonous!

Take me places, where it ain’t shine
Whisper, caress, tongue – your touch – spice
I quiver, I tremble; your lips – morning dew
I shake, I spasm; your looks – treasonous!

You’ve broken me a thousand – the motif
Your loving generous – we are legion
Yet, the yearning wild – to possess, the god of moan
I shake, I spasm; your looks – treasonous!

Take me places, where it ain’t shine
Whisper, caress, tongue – your touch – spice
I quiver, I tremble; your lips – morning dew
I shake, I spasm; your looks – treasonous!

Your eyes, take me places – dark and light
Your lips, tease me to places – I’d rather not forget
Your steel, sharp – cuts wide and deep
I shake, I spasm; your looks – treasonous!

Take me places, where it ain’t shine
Whisper, caress, tongue – your touch – spice
I quiver, I tremble; your lips – moaning dew
I shake, I spasm; your looks – treasonous!

  The dates: 27 th November-1 st December 2023. The venue. The Edge Convention Centre, Nairobi, Kenya. Sweet things first. Innovators get to walk away with 500K each, in shillings. 47 of them, from all the 47 counties… on Jamhuri Day, 5 of them get to walk away with… that’s for the President H.E. William Ruto to announce. The funding is to enable them take their innovations to market and build viable businesses out of the same. PIA – The Presidential Innovation Awards, the president is that serious. The Start-up sessions are a serious affair, the titles a mouthful, the colon abused: (Session: Founder Stories: An Exclusive Interview with Leading High Growth Start-ups: Learning, Pivoting and Critical Decisions during and Unprecedented Accelerated Business Growth). Ok, some of the lessons when scaling up: Ask for help; Believe in yourself; Resilience; Change of Mind-set. What’s the share of Bill Gates in Microsoft? We are asked. We throw figures around: 30, 90, 50… the percentages…

A Short Run

  There is a shout. Startled, he looks back. Now, his phone is gone. He was out jogging, phone held in the hand, the beat synchronised to his strides. The boys, really young, three of them on a motorbike, laced in silver – rings and teeth. ‘Typical,’ he thinks. It rains. Heavily. The El Nino rains – on and off. He hurries home in the downpour, drenched. He is among a few lonely souls on the almost deserted stretch of road, poorly light. There is a soft honk. A lovely smile beams at him. Could be his daughter. He hops in. That’s how he is unrobed – Mpesa, Fuliza, two banks accounts linked to his smartphone. He will no longer be doing mobile banking. Christmas is here, Nairobi style. He takes a detour off his Christmas tunes – Boney M to Elvis. Before that, that kingly tune set in Chicago… ‘… on a cold and grey Chicago morn… and his momma cries…’ On the second alley, music blares – reggae, rhumba - young men with bowls, begging to bury their friends, their comrades. A few pairs of sh
