[align=center]Death of an African Woman in Love
Death of an African Woman in Love.
Like a feeling that had gone for ever
she vanished at the end of harvest
(a painful memory of happiness lost)
after a Summer of no return.
Her eyes were black flares in the sun.
She always came running
with limbs that moved like whispers in the wind.
She was all passion in slow motion.
She wrote a letter from the deep of somewhere,
"You will find nothing beyond love", she said.
"If you hold my body, I will sweeten your heart
against all bitterness of the world."
