Wednesday morning and wild wails of your weary withering last Friday whack us | C |
Better days are promised and premised on mornings | D |
Why did this end with your crash | E |
The smell of death scares us to silence | F |
The sound of it screeches in our ears | G |
You've died at a time of death | H |

How soon you leave our scribes | I |
How fast our screens | J |
How quick our stories | K |

You towered with teachings | D |
Inscribed in essays and plays | L |
Crafted Kiswahili into a collosal construct | M |
Nuanced are your novels | N |
Sharp and splendid your short stories | K |
You live in your autobiography | O |
Which happily you leave for biography | O |

A giant you have fallen | P |
Birds of the air we're crestfallen | P |
