THE RETURN OF THE SILENT SHEEP

By Dwight Isebia

So the silent sheep reborn,

returned to claim the wool,
surrendered with a bleeding skin
because of the old blunt tools
the robbers used to shave it off
just to clothe the ones
who had her butchered afterwards,
not suspecting
She’d return in another form:
Vindictive and strong,
(DPI 2010)
