Poem by: C.P Nwankwo
SELF-PORTRAIT OF A WOMAN’S HEART PHOTOED AS FRAILTY
I taste the world a gore-stricken soul, feebling in the things that clang relief
In this room where delusion is a safety pin, bird’s wings never learn to fly and
the heart of a woman photos as frailty.
Isn’t a woman, fragments squealing in blotched skins? a blister with the
face of a pustule? & this femininity, a wingless bird where flight is a figment?
I’ve reteached my tongue not to take forte in the invocations of love calls.
I still scribble in rough parchments the beauty of heartbreaks, where my lover’s
flatteries are a pellicle of blindness. I’m a scalpel in the hands of a craftsman and the
dissect is a starked anatomy of love. But the threnody verses of a girl carpenters
illegal ideations. Why does reminisces yoke us and unyoke us with things jingling
familiarities? enamouring griefs is ethereal, wetting my reins with the tintiness
of liquors and inebriation. Isn’t it soothing to heal in broken pieces?
Gosh, relief is like a sea of drunken immersion where new birth is intoxicating.
Mama used to say a broken heart heals in broken pieces, and here I am,
preening piety for the growing thing that tags along with goodbyes.
About the Poet
Chinemerem Prince Nwankwo is currently an undergraduate of History and International Studies, University of Uyo, Uyo, Nigeria. He is an ardent member of The Rotaract Club of University of Uyo. He loves to read and write about Africa, women, and children. However, he sometimes delves into the writing of grief, loneliness, reminisces, hope, and also exploring christian themes. Even though, Arsenal FC wouldn’t lift the Premier league trophy this season, his love for Arsenal remains unswerving. If he’s not knitting thread lines of emotions and empathy, he snuffs relief with sleep, meditations, prayer walks, and hanging out with friends. Say hello; CP Nwankwo @ FB, nwankwo.cp @ Instagram.

Howdy! Do you know if they make any plugins to assist with Search Engine
Optimization? I’m trying to get my blog to rank for some targeted keywords but I’m not seeing very good results.
If you know of any please share. Thanks!

Please let me know if you’re looking for a author for your site.
You have some really great articles and I think I would be
a good asset. If you ever want to take some of the load off, I’d absolutely love to
write some articles for your blog in exchange for a link back to mine.
Please shoot me an email if interested. Cheers!
