Residential Block - 2024

Unnatural Landscape 2012

The occupation used cement for unnatural purposes. This material, from which we build our homes to take shelter and provide us with safety and security from the cold and heat, has been made murderous, their missiles turning ceilings into rubble on the heads of the people who had been living under them.

Death Has a Heart of Stone

O death, beware thyself!

Beware the dead

and their loved ones.

Beware:

The poet,

What the poem says,

Letters,

and the word.

Beware.

For you are alone, so alone.

You have no father,

Nor mother,

Nor child,

Nor brother, nor sister.

Beware:

The children

Not finished breastfeeding,

Not yet crossed the distance to the breast.

Beware their voices.

Beware:

Death

White shrouds

Raised hands

Gathered masses

Mourners

Coffee

A single date

Mothers’ ululations

Beware,

Beware,

O loner.
