A littered mind
A disused thought
A muffled song
A caged bird
A pregnant mind
A failed state
A confluence of pulse
A metaphor of martyrs
An angry poet
An unwritten poem
A poet unborn
A blind bat
A rotten mango
A tethered cow
A fossilized dream
A roaming ghost
A dead hero
A hacked limb
A chopped spirit
A stumped monument
A fading memory
An embalm[ed] body
A mummified soul
A tortured child
An abused woman
A dead rat
A wagging tale
A stunted metaphor
A broken pencil
A torn paper
A maimed muse
A stupid poet
A lame reader
A dead country
Oumar Farouk Sesay (20th century) Sierra Leone
